Overview

We hold the companies
running the plant floor.

Most capital arrives at industrial technology from the outside. We arrive from the inside, after decades building the SCADA, control, and data systems that keep energy and manufacturing running.

Sahoma Technologies Group is an industrial-technology holding company. We acquire, found, and grow operational-technology businesses, and we hold them for the long term rather than flipping them on a fund clock.

Our companies share a conviction: industrial systems should be open, vendor-neutral, and built on a unified namespace, with data treated as a first-class asset rather than a byproduct. That thesis runs from the edge device to the boardroom, and it is what we back.

The Group is based in Zürich and operates across Europe and North America, backed by Dean & Dean Capital Group.

holding company brings.

We hold for the long term. Our companies build for the next decade of plant infrastructure, not the next quarter.

Operating expertise

More than two hundred years of combined plant-floor experience, across SCADA, control, telemetry, and IIoT, sits behind every company we hold.

A Swiss base and North American delivery, serving energy, manufacturing, and critical-infrastructure operators.
