ADDNODE GROUP
Message from the CEO
“The fact that we understand
our customers’ needs and
challenges is ultimately proved
by the high demand in the
market for the products and
services we are developing.”
Within the Group we have many years of experience
in developing our offerings through acquisitions of
complementary businesses. We are continuously evaluating
acquisition candidates that can expand or strengthen our
software and services in new and existing markets.
WHAT IS YOUR VIEW OF DEVELOPMENTS IN 2016?
We have now positioned ourselves in the European market
with an international offering in the systems area for design and
construction as well as product data information, and we are
strongly positioned in the Swedish and Norwegian markets for
systems that can handle large amounts of information for the
public sector.
Several of our subsidiaries working together have a
stronger offering than what they could each have on their own.
In cases where we see clear business synergies like this, we
are combining companies. Examples include the formation of
TechniaTranscat in the PLM business area, the combination of
Tekis and Cartesia in the Process Management business area,
and the currently ongoing name change of Cad-Q to Symetri in
the Design Management business area.
We have compelling offerings in all our business areas, with
solid industry know-how and high delivery reliability. Together
with our customers, in 2016 we will continue to simplify and
improve everyday life for more than a half-million engineers
and administrators around the world while upholding our
commitment to quality.
