SMX has publically resigned from NZICT this afternoon, following industry group's support of controversial changes to the Patents Bill.
"We feel that NZICT does not represent NZ software companies' interests, as its tier 1 membership, board and funding is derived from large off-shore companies or their local partners. These off-shore software companies have a huge amount invested in the software patent gravy train and in stifling local competition."
