PHILIPSBURG:--- Antek IT Solutions proudly hosted a special anniversary event at Emilio’s Restaurant to celebrate a major milestone: 30 years of Payroll Pro HRM, the leading payroll application in St. Maarten and trusted across the Dutch Caribbean. The gathering brought together loyal clients, partners, and friends of the company for an
evening of reflection, appreciation, and celebration. Guests enjoyed light snacks, drinks, and music as they reconnected and commemorated Payroll Pro’s three decades of service to the region.
Donovan Smith, Director at Antek IT Solutions, opened the event by highlighting the enduring collaboration between Antek and Gamma IT Solutions, the creators of Payroll Pro HRM. “This milestone is more than a celebration of a product — it’s a celebration of partnership,” Smith said. “For 30 years, Antek and Gamma
have worked hand-in-hand to support organizations in St. Maarten. It’s a relationship built on trust, innovation, and the shared mission of helping businesses take care of their employees.”
Long-serving Antek team member Louis Bute and former director Klaas van Sloten were also invited to share their insights and memories, reflecting on the product’s early days and the continued commitment behind its success.
The celebration was further enriched by the presence of representatives from Gamma IT Solutions, including Managing Director Frank Baks, who joined Antek in commemorating the milestone and honoring the longstanding partnership between both companies.
Giovanni Wester of Gamma IT Solutions also delivered remarks on the future of Payroll Pro HRM. West spoke about the ongoing evolution of the software and offered an exciting teaser of what’s ahead - the upcoming integration of artificial intelligence to enhance payroll processing and user experience.
As Antek IT Solutions looks toward the future, the company remains dedicated to supporting Payroll Pro users with local expertise, training, and deep collaboration with its development partners.
