During a recent meeting with the press, Aggity CEO, Óscar Pierre announced the company had obtained a turnover of 6.5 million euros during the 2018 fiscal year. With this figure the company has fulfilled its objectives which it set up in 2017, the year in which it innovated its corporate strategy to address the first stage of its transformation to a new firm focused on the offer around the digitization and the socialization applied to business management.

Currently, Aggity has made investments of 1.2 million euros and has grown its human resources by 40%, from 61 people in 2017 to a team of 93 professionals in 2018, spread across Spain, Mexico and other regions in Latin America where it operates.

The company now addresses the second phase of its strategy, broken into four steps. This second phase contemplates the acquisition of two companies, in Spain, in the software environment and the services of Business Intelligence (BI) and Artificial Intelligence (AI), respectively; and a third in Colombia, to start operating in this country through its own subsidiary through a franchise agreement. Likewise, Aggity will create a startups platform in BI and IA environments.

With this second part of the strategy, Aggity plans to grow over 50% this year to reach a turnover of 9.9 million euros in 2019 and make it more than 60% in 2020, to achieve a turnover of 16.6 million euros. By 2021 and 2022, Aggity's business plan foresees growth of around 27%, with a turnover of 21.3 and 26.9 million euros, respectively.

Of the total business generated during the next four years, Aggity expects that around 50% will come from Spain and the rest from outside country borders, with a special weight of its activity in Mexico that should generate about 25%. 

With planned acquisitions and the creation of a startups platform, Aggity completes the second phase of its transformation strategy as a company that, in a nutshell, goes on to add services in the area of ​​digital business transformation to its current offering and in the integration of AI in their solutions. Likewise, the company gives a special value to the incorporation of new knowledge, hence the creation of the platform of startups, called Aggity Next, and with which it wants to take advantage of the talent of the new generations, while supporting them in the commercial channeling of their developments and ideas.

According to Oscar Pierre, president and CEO of Aggity, "We will be able to complete the transformation of the company in record time and, not only keeping our billing level within it, but also integrating the tremendous transformation that the new models are producing business and new technologies that have appeared in the last two years - but with a degree of maturity and integration hitherto unseen, such as with IA, BI & Data and IoT. "

"Our business objectives," continues Pierre, "are realistic, but beyond it, the strategy seeks to model an organization, an offer and a talent capable of adapting and taking advantage of the changes we will attend in the next few years, which are going to be incredible."
