Vero Software is a company based in Cheltenham, England, that specialises in CAD CAM (Computer Aided Design and Manufacturing).

History

Vero was founded in Northern Italy in October 1988 by Don Babbs and Ezio Galardo when they left Olivetti. In the mid 1990s, its VISI-CAD and VISI-CAM products were the first to use the PC implementation of the Parasolid kernel.

The company was incorporated in 1997 under the name Deepcredit Limited, and then renamed as VI Group Plc in 1998 prior to its listing on the London Stock Market.[1] In October 2007, the company was renamed to Vero Software.[2]

On 11 August 2008, Vero Software Plc and its UK subsidiaries Vero UK Limited[3] and Camtek Limited moved to a combined facility in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire from its previous location in Stroud.[4] In 2010 and 2014 Vero Software was awarded 'The Queens Award for Enterprise'.[5]

Vero Software develops and distributes software for aiding the design and manufacturing processes, providing solutions[buzzword] for the tooling, production engineering, sheet metal, metal fabrication, stone and woodworking industries. The company's brands include Alphacam, Cabinet Vision, Edgecam, Machining STRATEGIST, PEPS, Radan, SMIRT, SURFCAM, VISI, and WorkNC, along with the production control MRP system Javelin.[citation needed]

The company has direct offices in the UK, Germany, Italy, France, Japan, USA, Brazil, Netherlands, China, Korea, Spain and India supplying products to more than 45 countries through its wholly owned subsidiaries and expansive reseller network.[6]
