THE DECISIVE STEP AHEAD BOC GROUP COMPANY PROFILE www.boc-group.com THANK YOU MORE THAN 20 SUCCESSFUL YEARS! July 2015 marked the 20th anniversary of the BOC Group. Prof. Dr. Dimitris Karagiannis and a few fellow campaigners from the then existing BPMS research group of the University of Vienna had founded the company in 1995. Ever since, an international medium-sized company has emerged and has become an innovative and successful market player for IT-based management tools and associated services. Our journey has always been characterized by continuous change. From a small business with centralized operation, we have become a multi-national corporation with distributed areas of responsibility. We have grown from a one-product business to a company with an extensive product and service portfolio and this by constantly adjusting to new technological frameworks. In addition to this portfolio we have actively and sustainably expanded to new regions and markets. At the same time, this change has always been accompanied by some constant factors: in strongly cooperative relationships with our clients we have always been open to dialogue and have never considered ourselves a “unidirectional provider”. We promote innovation through our experience, which we have gained through a large number of challenging projects, and we integrate this experience actively in the continuous development of our products and services. Furthermore, we emphasize diversity among our employees that, today, originate from nearly 30 nations and deliver creative ideas and solutions from different perspectives. Since its foundation, the BOC Group has had the opportunity to participate in a variety of exciting projects and initiatives with a vast number of interesting personalities. We would like to sincerely thank our clients, employees and partners for this journey and are already looking forward to the years ahead!
