By Mark Davison – One of the South African IT industry’s most admired and ebullient executives, Jacques Malherbe, chief technology officer of the Axiz group of companies, has died. He was 67-years-old.

Malherbe had a long and distinguished career in the industry – mainly in executive roles – from chief financial officer of Blue Sky back in the early 1990s with MD Tom Pegrume, to CEO of Westcon where he took over the reins from another IT veteran, John Hurrell. After the merger of Comztek and Westcon, Malherbe left the company to found and lead Advanced Technologies, a new division within the then AxizWorkgroup stable. He took up his current position as group CTO about three years ago.

“We are still working through the implications of this news, offering support to his team and will communicate any internal memorial and team plans in due course.
