History

CI&T was founded in 1995 as an IT group working with research and development (R&D) companies for software development before expanding to provide technical services to nearshore customers. [4] [5] Early clients included IBM, Hewlett-Packard, Vale, Natura, and Globo. [6] [7] [8]

CI&T opened an office in Pennsylvania in 2006 [9] and in Tokyo (Japan) and Ningbo (China) in 2009. [10]

CI&T has been working as a technical integrator of digital marketing engagements with many of their clients. [6] In 2017, CI&T acquired Conrade, a solution provider based in Oakland, in the United States. [11] In 2019, Advent acquired 30% of CI&T participation from BNDES. [12]

In June 2021, it announced the acquisition of Dextra, an IT services company headquartered in Campinas, near CI&T geographically. [13] In November 2021, the company filed for an initial public offering and got listed on New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). [14]

In 2022, CI&T announced the acquisition of three companies. The first was UK-headquartered Somo Global Ltd, an award-winning digital product agency, for US$67 million. [15] Then came Box 1824. [16] After that, in August 2022 the company acquired Transpire, an Australian-based technology consultancy, for US$16,4 million. [17]
