HISTORY OF THE GROUP
Ghenova’s beginnings date back to 1984, developing consulting and engineering work in projects related to infrastructure and energy from Seville. From the 1990s onwards it became a reference company in engineering for the naval sector, a position that has been consolidated until today and that has helped them to take advantage of other business opportunities.
Ghenova has grown both organically and from acquisitions of companies with complementary capabilities and has invested to establish itself where talent and business opportunities exist. In 2010, with the opening of the first subsidiary in Brazil, Ghenova began its international expansion. Subsequently, the Group consolidated its global presence by opening offices in Bolivia, Colombia, Australia, the United Kingdom, the United States, South Korea and Saudi Arabia.
The company is also committed to new growth opportunities by strengthening its main business lines, such as the acquisition of SIMAN, a software product for logistics support and advanced maintenance. On the other hand, it is committed to the generation of disruptive technologies in the field of renewable energies such as BlueSolar or W2Power.
