Extia Engineering

Building on Extia's 17 years of existence, Extia Engineering's story began in 2022 with a mission: to serve Extia's long-standing clients thanks to a dedicated organisation tailored to their needs. Driven by the belief that well-being is the key to performance, we strive to surround ourselves with stakeholders who share the same values and with whom we can build the engineering of tomorrow.

First who, then what!

"First who, then what" is the essence of Extia Engineering. Everything we do starts with the "who", the individual, his aspirations and skills, and from there we work together to build a meaningful project with added value for both the new Extian and our company. We are convinced that choosing the best partners and fostering open communication in the workplace is better than having a strategy and then recruiting people who won't follow it.

The Extiapreneurs

We owe Extia Engineering’s growth to the entrepreneurs who have seized the opportunities offered to them, turned their visions into actionable projects and their efforts into success stories. A big thank you and congratulations to them! We hope they'll inspire future Extiapreneurs. What if you were one of them?
