Milestones

Growth

Kontron Group continues to grow exponentially and solidify its position in the ever-growing Industrial IoT sector. Kontron Group’s growth targets remain ambitious as the company aims to reach EUR 2 billion in revenues by 2025 as part of its  “Agenda 2025”. The 2021 published long-term “Vision 2030” foresees further organic and inorganic growth accompanied by further investments in future technologies to ensure Kontron can strengthen and expand its pioneering technology position.

Vision 2030

Furthermore the Vision 2030 includes Kontron Group’s mission to help businesses realize the full potential of digitalization and harness smart technologies. The drivers for this are the continuous expansion of its high-margin business, such as software capabilities, the development of a range of “IoT as a Service” (IoTaaS) packages operated with service level agreements, and the step-by-step expansion and intensification of service skills in the IT services segment towards IoT. As a result, Kontron will complete its transformation to a full-service IoT player and is on target to acheive EBITDA of more than 15% by 2030.

Also, Kontron Group remains determined in increasing brand awareness and building a strong brand internationally!
