Engineering company

To develop its activities and get closer to its industrial clients, Apside creates its IT consulting subsidiary specialised in the field of technical, scientific and electronic computing.

Because working in close proximity to its clients is essential, Apside begins its expansion across the country by opening its first agency in ‘La Ville Rose’: Toulouse.

Trust is much harder to build at a distance.
With this idea in mind, Apside keeps expanding its IT consulting and engineering company activities with a new office in the vicinity of Bordeaux.

The Southwest of France is conquered.
The company then gets closer to the Mediterranean and opens another agency in Aix-en-Provence.

Thanks to an independent management of each agency, a strong IT consulting and engineering group begins to take shape.
Locally managed agencies enable Apside to continue expanding quickly. A new agency in Rennes opens.

Two reasons to celebrate for Apside this year!
Two new subsidiaries open at once in two beautiful regions with an office in Nantes and another one in Nice. Their location will define the key activities of those agencies. With Nice having more engineering companies around, this provides a rather industrial ecosystem for Apside’s Nice agency. Nantes, on the other hand, benefits from a more IT-oriented environment.

In order to keep growing and develop new areas of expertise, Apside acquires the engineering company ‘HTi’ specialised in automotive engineering.

The growing evolution of IT and engineering companies and technologies creates a need for new, more specialised jobs in data security.
To offer its clients full support, Apside opens a new subsidiary specialised in the field of infrastructure and production: Apside’s Facilities Management.

The geographical coverage of its agencies allows Apside to operate all across France.
Opening the agencies of Lille, Lyon and Tours mark the opening of the eighth, ninth and tenth corporate offices of the group.

Optimal support for consultants’ careers can only be reached when it is personalised.
Therefore, Apside chooses to expand and implement more agencies such as Brest and Orléans to offer its local employees a closer proximity and establish deeper relationships.

In IT consulting and engineering companies, professional projects can lead to office moves and discovering new local customs.
Apside promotes professional mobility throughout the country with its multiple agencies and offers new opportunities to its consultants. Apside sets up branch close to the traditional Strasbourg Christmas market!

Challenges guide the evolution of our talented workforce as well as our company.
Apside decided to take up the challenge and cross borders to open its first international agency in Geneva.

With the strength of a group and the proximity of a small business, Apside adapts to the needs of its clients by getting closer to them.
Germany, a large industrial market, allows Apside and its consultants to participate in innovative projects.

Long years of mutual trust led to a new challenge stemming from the firm’s relationship with its client. It was only up to the teams to take it and offer great opportunities fofor all of Apside’s co-workers, hence Apside decides to follow one of its major automotive clients and sets up a technical platform in Morocco.

Passionate employees and a diverse set of professions are at the core of the Apside Group’s identity. Each agency opening is a new stimulating challenge. So, at the initiative of the Toulouse agency, a branch in Montpellier joins the big Apside family.

Our company evolves and knowledge is passed on.
Mr Michel Klar hands Apside over to about 100 of its executives and managers, who become shareholders of the company. They are led by Pierre Gauthier, Apside's new CEO. Siparex oversees the private equity project.
