Bertrandt is consistently advancing its group strategy. With the acquisition of the specialist company Philotech, it is further expanding the growth fields of software, electronics, and IT security.
For around 35 years now, the Philotech Group has been a specialist for highly demanding, holistic development projects in the fields of software, electronics, and IT security. It provides comprehensive solutions for complex systems for customers from the aviation, automotive, telecommunications, and transportation sectors. In the field of aviation, its core competencies include, for example, flight control systems, avionics systems, and software development, as well as their integration and validation. In the automotive sector, the focus is on autonomous systems, electric mobility and connectivity.
With its know-how and its regional and international operations at sites in Germany, France and Spain, the Philotech Group complements not only Bertrandt’s broad and deep range of services, but also its regional organization.
