UMB Solutions is now called mesoneer
The software development company UMB Solutions is now called mesoneer. The change of name takes place in the course of the acquisition of UMB by the energy and infrastructure company BKW, which was announced in December 2021. The software division UMB Solutions was not affected by the sale and will therefore continue as an owner-managed company.
Following the takeover of the parent company UMB by the BKW Group, the software manufacturer UMB Solutions becomes independent and gives itself a new name, mesoneer. The software division UMB Solutions was not affected by the sale and will now continue as an owner-managed company - and continues to grow. "Neither our services nor our contacts are changing," says mesoneer CEO Patrick Brazzale. "Only the name is changing. Continuity in terms of quality and customer care is therefore guaranteed." The same applies to ownership: With CEO Brazzale, Matthias Keller as majority shareholder and Chairman of the Board of Directors, and other partners, all partners remain loyal to the company.
Growth to around 100 employees at three locations
The current structure of mesoneer was created in the summer of 2021, when UMB's software subsidiary UMB Solutions merged with the start-up ubitec, which was founded in 2018. Both companies already counted well-known companies among their customers before the merger. In the meantime, in addition to its offices in Wallisellen near Zurich and Ho Chi Min City, Vietnam, mesoneer has opened another location in Da Nang in the center of Vietnam and employs a total of around 100 people. In addition to individual solutions for process automation, the company develops applications for digital identification, electronic signature, conversational business (secure messenger and chatbot) and open banking. The products are used wherever security and trust need to be ensured, for example in compliance with the Money Laundering Act or data protection guidelines. In addition, mesoneer offers corporate IT departments consulting with specialized expertise. This includes applications such as the workflow management system Camunda BPM, the automation solution Microsoft Power Platform or the data streaming platform Apache Kafka.
Separate ways, lasting partnership
"We will also remain closely connected with UMB as an independent company in terms of friendship and partnership," says Brazzale. Thus, the two companies would continue to work together on markets and offer services. This will ensure continuity of support for existing customers.
