Since early 2020, the company has left Glen Raven / Dickson Group to become independent. This autonomy has allowed us to focus our strategy on innovation and international expansion through a responsible and sustainable company.

The strength of our company is its ability to quickly respond to our clients thanks to our offices in Asia, America, and EMEAI.
