Verona, October 1st 2020 – Kiratech, provider of DevOps, Cloud and Security consulting, training and services, that helps enterprises adopt a Cloud Native approach, celebrates fifteen years of activity and it is getting ready for 2021 with important news and ambitious goals.
With an increase in revenue more than doubled in the last 4 years, reaching 8 million Euros in FY19, Kiratech can now rely on a team of 30 people, with the prospect of recruiting 10 new employers by the end of 2020.
Its global presence has also grown rapidly and a new headquarters in Bangkok, Kiratech Asia Limited, was inaugurated in February 2020, thanks to the support of the European Community (EU Gateway) and the Thai Board of Investment.
The opening of the Thai office is just the latest piece in the company's international growth project, which includes the opening of a new headquarters in Switzerland in Lugano in 2018.
The company has continued to grow and expand even during the lockdown period, thanks to the remote work opportunity that allowed Kiratech to ensure the continuity of all business activities and the complete safety of its employees, finding fertile ground for new projects.
Among the most important, the development and consolidation of the Managed Service Provider (MSP) service with Matteo Gorghetto as chief in charge since July 2020. Gorghetto is Systems Management Operations Manager with 30 years of international experience in ICT and core skills in setting up and managing complex IT systems for large enterprises.
"The lockdown period has given us the opportunity to look not only at the growth of the company in the market but to look at the inside, to seize new opportunities and make the most of the resources and skills at our disposal" said Giulio Covassi, CEO at Kiratech. "We have never stopped and we want to continue like this: there are many new projects that enrich our offer aimed at customers that want to join the Cloud Transformation, from new partnerships to collaborations in the field of ICT research".
In particular, Kiratech is turning its attention to the following projects:
- The development of a new business unit – AKIT – focused on the Cyber Security for Cloud Native platforms, which will cover the DevSecOps and hardening themes on Hybrid Cloud systems, under the leadership of Prof. Francesco Tornieri, with international experience and many years in Infosecurity.
- The beginning of a new collaboration with the University of Verona for ICE Lab (Industrial Computer Engineering Laboratory).
