Founded in 1986 by three South African entrepreneurs who had originally worked together in the electronic measurement industry, these pioneers saw the opportunity to venture into their own business, and Impro Technologies was born. A key strength of the business was the expertise of the founders in both engineering and sales. This was to prove invaluable when they saw an opportunity to use Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) in a new application – that of access control. Impro became one of the first companies in the world to adopt RFID and quickly became pioneers in the technology. This resulted in the business developing innovative new products that revolutionized the access control industry, and achieved tremendous growth for the group.
