Together successful for 30 years: Thank you to all customers & partners

Next year will be a very special one for us at icomedias: we will celebrate 30 years of innovation, partnership, and success! For three decades, we’ve had the privilege of realizing exciting projects with you, achieving technological milestones, and driving positive change. For this, we want to sincerely thank you – for your trust and cooperation.

Looking back – highlights from 30 years

What began with a meeting at a computer get-together during our university days soon turned into a shared passion for data technology and communication networks. This led to the founding of our company. The core team from back then is still on board – as are some customers from the early days, with whom we have now been working for decades.

  • 1995: Company founded and development of the first websites for commercial customers

Looking ahead – our plans for the future

Even after three decades, we are still driven by the same pioneering spirit: We want to continue developing innovative solutions to enable efficient paperless processes and support people in their daily work. In 2025, the focus will be on further applications with artificial intelligence (AI):

  • Content and sentiment analysis, as well as summaries with LLMs (Large Language Models) based on the open European system Mistral
  • Whisper Speech-2-Text for accurate speech recognition and transcription
  • Translation between almost any languages
  • Custom Speech and Text-2-Speech, including the option for custom voices
  • Optimizations for search functions and simplified language for web portals

All of this will operate on dedicated servers (on-premises) to ensure maximum control over sensitive data and privacy.

A thank you to all our customers, partners & teams

Thank you for being part of our journey – the milestones of the last 30 years would not have been possible without you. Your support and feedback have inspired us to keep pushing boundaries and reimagining innovation.

We wish you and your families a wonderful holiday season. Enjoy this time of year, and have a good start to the new year! We look forward to celebrating more achievements with you in 2025.

PS: Instead of Christmas gifts for our customers, we have once again chosen to contribute where it truly matters: a donation to the Children’s Cancer Aid. It is important to us to support children and families in need.
