Former CEO of Altron Robbie Venter has died, the ICT group said on Wednesday.
Venter was CEO of the group from 2001 to 2017 and served on the board since 1997. He was a prominent tennis player and is the son of the 90-year-old SA business veteran Bill Venter.
He died on Tuesday, at the age of 64 years.
TechCentral reported two sources as saying that he had cancer – although this has not been officially confirmed yet as the cause of death.
"His [Venter's] contributions to Altron, since 1997, were invaluable, and his presence will be greatly missed. His outstanding contributions and leadership have made a lasting impact on the technology industry and business at large," Altron said in a statement.
