History in numbers
Lubomír Drašar, Pavel Krois, and Petr Novotný found SWELL. They open a design office in Hořice and hire their first five employees.
The company purchases a production facility in Hořice and expands its services to include the manufacture of prototype parts. It specializes in stamped body structures, machined models, and tools.
The growing partnership with the leading Czech car producer leads to the opening of a branch in Mladá Boleslav.
The first equipment for material testing is installed literally in a former garage. This lays the foundation for a future development testing facility.
A modern Development Services Center opens on Příčná Street in Hořice - the company’s most significant investment to date.
SWELL is granted Accredited Testing Laboratory status by the Czech Accreditation Institute.
The second phase of construction of the Development Services Center is completed. The prototype workshop and testing facility are expanded. The company becomes part of F1 development team in Maranello.
Investment fund managed by Genesis Capital, becomes the owner of the company.
Altran Technologies becomes the new owner. SWELL joins the multinational group under the new name Altran CZ.
The Altran Group is acquired by the technology firm Capgemini.
Management buyout of the company is completed. Investment fund managed by Versute Capital becomes the majority owner, while managers Petr Havlík, Milan Křovina, and Jaromír Kejval acquire a minority stake. The company changes its brand to Tiyo.
