Excitech, with more than 3 500 customers and 150 people is the leading Autodesk Platinum Partner in the UK and a solution provider of CAD, BIM, PDM software, training and consultancy services.

Adrian Atkinson, Chairman and Founder of Excitech explained
“Excitech is a strong business and the company is ready to take the next step. When we began discussions with Symetri about how the two businesses could work together, it quickly became clear that the two organisations share common values with a strong empathy for employees and customers, and complementary skills and technologies. Together I believe we will achieve more.”
