On October 5, 2024, TIU Holdings (TIU Group of companies), formerly known as UTI Group, will proudly celebrate 34 years of impactful presence in the Romanian technology and services sector. This anniversary not only highlights the Group’s remarkable evolution and rebranding journey but also marks a significant milestone in its history: the first commercial transaction made by the Infcon, the family association which laid the foundation for what would become a thriving group of companies.
A story of pioneering tech solutions and vison
The story began on October 5, 1990, when the sale of a single Compaq laptop to a university in Bucharest unfolded, symbolizing not only a business transaction but also the onset of Romania’s technological transformation in the post-communist era. This transaction represented more than just a sale; it was a step towards modernity for an educational institution eager to embrace the digital age. Back then, access to technology was limited, and this sale initiated a ripple effect, enabling educational growth and fostering innovation throughout the country.
Over the decades, TIU Holdings has navigated various market challenges and technological advancements, propelling itself to become a leader in the sector. The Group’s dedication to delivering exceptional services and innovative solutions has led to a diverse portfolio, reflecting its adaptability and vision.
Nowadays, TIU Holdings boasts a turnover of €186 million in 2023, affirming its status as a key player in the technology landscape of Romania, and has invested 6 million euros of its own funding in expanding and upgrading its technological platforms and its production capacity.
