History

Our story

Founded in 2002 as a 100% Angolan-owned company, Menshen was created with the goal of raising the standard of IT services in the Angolan market, beginning right away as an active Microsoft partner.

Over more than two decades we have delivered projects across Angola's most demanding sectors - banking, oil & gas, government, insurance, telecoms and aviation. Among them, the Microsoft 365 migration of the national airline, TAAG - more than 1,000 mailboxes, with no disruption to flight operations.

Today Menshen is the oldest active Microsoft partner in Angola and the country's most-awarded. Under the Government's Digital Development Programme - 80,000 Microsoft 365 licences for the public administration - it was selected, with the First Technology ecosystem, to deliver the pilot.
