DZP advises on the formation of an innovative IT services centre
Our client, amb software, a Polish company that specialises in creating high-quality software, and REWE digital GmbH formed the joint venture REWE digital Poland based in Zielona Góra.
The agreement they have concluded will enable the creation of a state-of-the-art IT competence centre responsible for providing IT services and technological expertise to the German REWE Group, one of the largest retail and tourism groups in Europe.
The newly established company will commence operations in the fourth quarter of this year and will develop in parallel with amb software’s current and ongoing business commitments with the REWE Group and other partners.
“Over more than 20 years of doing business, amb software has built a recognisable brand in the German IT market. We have close long-standing cooperation with the REWE Group based on trust and high standards. We are proud that we were able to convince our partner to locate a new IT centre in Zielona Góra. I believe that this joint venture will become a catalyst accelerating the technological development of the entire region,” emphasizes Szymon Goniewicz, member of the board of amb software and president of REWE digital Poland.
