At 44 million euros in 2018, the Copa-Data Group was able to increase its turnover by 19% compared to 2017 (37.2 million euros). Thomas Punzenberger, CEO of Copa-Data: "We are delighted with this very positive development. The trust that our customers around the world place in the zenon software platform and our services is an enormous incentive for us. We want to continue to drive development forward and become a little better every day. That is why we work closely with technological global players, such as Microsoft, to provide our customers with the best possible support. But one thing is very clear: we remain a 100% financially independent family business and therefore a reliable long-term partner."

Copa Data created more new jobs in 2018: While the company employed around 240 people in 2017, this figure had risen to over 270 by the end of 2018. Phillip Werr, Chief Marketing and Operations Officer: "Our growth is also reflected in terms of personnel: the Group welcomed 30 new team members on board in 2018. Our staff turnover rate remains low. This gives us as management enormous confidence in our great team."

With its eleven subsidiaries and 18 distributors, the software specialist for automation ensures local sales and support for the Zenon software platform in 51 countries.
