Acquiring coMakeIT will help Xebia address the cloud-native and platform development needs of the ISV market and grow in that space globally. Together with coMakeIT, we clearly see complementary ability to create future-ready products for our ISV customers and also develop innovative software for these platforms to help ISV's customers' needs. This creates a very strong proposition for ISVs and our ability to partner with them."

Their product co-creation stewardship and innovation accelerators are complimentary to Xebia's value proposition. With these newly acquired skills, we are confident of serving regional ISV's and technology startups more efficiently and with quality."

The right technology and the right talents are crucial for growth in a digital world. Acquiring CoMakeIT will strengthen Xebia's long-term relationships with clients through comprehensive managed services, and CoMakeIT will gain access to Xebia's in-depth knowledge of all digital transformation domains. Besides sharing the same values, both, originally Dutch companies, have experience expanding their presence in countries such as India.
