HOW WE SERVE CLIENTS

Companies often struggle to get the results from technology that we know are possible. Well-implemented technology can be world changing. It removes waste and makes us better at what we do.
Our mission is to help others achieve the true benefit that technology can offer and increase business success and value. We are a leader in Europe helping businesses backed by private equity and venture capital to achieve their growth plans through technology.
This is achieved through our excellence at understanding how to improve a technology function to deliver business value – and then assisting the company to deliver those improvements. Our strengths include bespoke software development, system architecture, technology strategy, change management, data science, machine learning and cloud platform engineering.
In 2023, Intechnica joined forces with U.S.-based Crosslake Technologies, a solutions-driven, global tech advisory firm serving private equity investors and their portfolio companies with technology due diligence, digital transformation strategy, technology value optimization and executive leadership focused on growing enterprise value through technology.
