International IT service provider continues UK expansion with new London office

IT service provider adesso is continuing its expansion to the UK by establishing a branch in London.

Including the latest national subsidiary, adesso UK Limited, adesso is now represented in 14 countries around Europe. The UK subsidiary will initially focus on supplying companies in the UK with “attractive” near-shore and offshore offerings from the adesso Group’s global supply network.

The adesso SmartShore model, which was created specifically for near-shore and offshore services, offers software development for IT projects by bringing together highly specialised teams from various national adesso subsidiaries on an agile basis, aligned toward specific challenges.

Sophisticated IT projects are supported by international teams made up of IT professionals from Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Spain and India, among others, at the various SmartShore offices operated by the adesso Group as part of its global network.

In the UK, adesso will be working with companies to carry out near-shoring and offshoring software development projects in a bid to counter the striking shortage of IT professionals in that country, offer cost advantages and drive adoption of new and digital technologies as a whole.

adesso recently appointed Libero Raspa as the director of adesso UK, where he will be leading the sales-focused business in the United Kingdom. With extensive international experience, Raspa joined the company in March 2023, bringing a wealth of knowledge to the team.

Dirk Pothen, member of the adesso SE Executive Board and head of internationalisation at the adesso Group, commented: “The UK is an important market for us. When it comes to shoring, the United Kingdom is very advanced, with the openness that goes with that.

“Just think of the traditional software offshoring in India alone. That makes the UK a highly interesting market for adesso and its strategic positioning as a near-shoring and offshoring partner.

“The benefit is that we offer high-quality software at competitive prices – developed using an agile approach at our SmartShore Delivery Center, which is staffed by an international team. This allows us to cushion the acute shortage of IT professionals in the UK and serve the demand for digitalisation.”
