Adevărul, 2018: 648 Group, client focus, engineering culture and blockchain

Tremend buys 648 Group, a web and mobile development company founded by a Romanian and headquartered in the United States, February 2018. Article by Elena Deacu. Quoted: me, then co-founder and managing partner of Tremend. Topics: what the two companies share, enterprise work for US clients, the clients and industries of both companies.

§The same client focus and the same engineering culture

“648 shares the same client focus and the same engineering culture with us, and we are convinced the transition will be an easy one.” („648 împărtăşeşte aceeaşi orientare către client şi aceeaşi cultură de inginerie cu noi şi suntem convinşi că tranziţia va fi una uşoară.”)

Two things in common: the way the companies treat clients and the way they do engineering. On that basis, an easy transition.

Elsewhere. Start-up.ro, 2018, the same day: “There is a synergy between the two companies in terms of technical culture and experience in working with US organisations.” („Între cele două companii există o sinergie în ceea ce privește cultura tehnică și experiența în a lucra cu organizații din US.”)

§Enterprise solutions on emerging technologies, blockchain included

“Together, we will continue to grow our client portfolio in the United States, offering enterprise solutions based on emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, Internet of Things and blockchain.” („Împreună, vom continua să creştem portofoliul de clienţi din Statele Unite, oferind soluţii pentru întreprinderi bazate pe tehnologii emergente, cum ar fi inteligenţa artificială, machine learning, Internet of Things şi blockchain.”)

Four technologies: artificial intelligence, machine learning, Internet of Things and blockchain. The clients: enterprises in the United States.

Elsewhere. StartupCafe, 2018, on the projects Tremend wanted to bring to US companies: “We are working, for example, on mobile banking projects, marketplaces, Customer Care platforms, IoT, solutions for autonomous vehicles, and also solutions that integrate emerging technologies such as AI, Machine Learning or Biometrics.” („Lucrăm de exemplu pe proiecte de mobile banking, marketplace-uri, platforme de Customer Care, IoT, soluţii pentru vehicule autonome dar şi soluţii care integrează tehnologii emergente, precum AI, Machine Learning sau Biomtrics”)
