Join Helmes: the long-term home for software entrepreneurs

Become a part of Europe’s most entrepreneur-friendly constellation of software development companies

Let’s begin with a conversation

Dear fellow founder,

Building a software company takes vision, dedication, and courage. You’ve created something truly meaningful – a talented team, innovative solutions, and great client relationships.

But now you’re wondering: How do I develop it further while preserving what makes our business special?

Building alone can be a lonely and challenging journey. We get it. Because we’ve been there too.

Today, we are a thriving partnership of entrepreneurs who’ve chosen to grow together. Our constellation of software businesses includes over 1,500 talented professionals who support each other to grow. But importantly, our entrepreneurial DNA remains unchanged.

Sell a part of your company, not your autonomy. Let’s build a bigger future together.
