The Portuguese group Quadrante is taking another step in its expansion in Catalonia with the acquisition of a strategic company. After integrating the consulting and engineering firm Meta Engineering a year and a half ago, the company has now formalized the purchase of Inprocess Technology and Consulting Group, a Barcelona-based firm specializing in advanced simulation and process digital twins.
The Portuguese group, which counts the fund Henke Partners among its shareholders, reported revenues of €125 million last year and employs a workforce of 1,350 people across more than ten countries in Europe, the Americas, and Africa.
The transaction preserves Inprocess’ operational autonomy and aims to strengthen its competitive position. The company will continue to be led by its current CEO, Oriol Millan, and will retain its brand, management team, and offices. In the last financial year, the firm recorded revenues of more than €15 million and has a team of 165 professionals—mostly chemical engineers—delivering projects worldwide. In addition to its headquarters in Barcelona, it has offices in Houston (United States), Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia), Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), and Pune (India). Its client base is primarily focused on the energy sector and process industries across the entire hydrocarbons value chain.
As part of the agreement, Inprocess’ founding shareholders will join Quadrante’s shareholding structure through a reinvestment scheme designed to ensure strategic and financial alignment between the two parties. In this new phase, the company aims to accelerate its international growth through a strategy of selective acquisitions. According to the group’s CEO, Nuno Gomes, the alliance will provide greater scale and strengthen Quadrante’s positioning as a global player
