About Us
A Journey into Innovation
Kineton was founded in 2017 with a clear mission: to develop advanced technological solutions that create value for the market and people. Since its inception, the company has rapidly established itself as a reference point in the Automotive, Media, IT & Telco, and Aerospace sectors, distinguishing itself through its ability to innovate, anticipate market needs, and offer cutting-edge services.
From the beginning, the focus has been on bringing together an excellence team, developing high-quality solutions, and making innovation the strategic lever for growth. From an emerging startup to a consolidated entity, Kineton has undergone an extraordinary evolution, expanding its competencies and building a network of strategic collaborations with technological partners, institutions, and universities.
In recent years, Kineton has strengthened its international positioning by developing global partnerships with prominent players and opening new strategic offices—highly specialised hubs that reinforce the connection and proximity with clients and partners in the reference sectors. Today, the company boasts a solid presence in Italy and abroad, with offices in Naples, Milan, Turin, Reggio Emilia, Albania, the UK, Germany, and the USA: technological innovation centres designed to tackle the most complex challenges of digital transformation. This growth journey has led the company to be recognised as a key player in the high-tech landscape, capable of competing globally and actively contributing to the future of innovation.
Beyond technological excellence, Kineton has always paid great attention to the social and environmental impact of its activities. The decision to become a Benefit Corporation represents a natural step in this commitment: integrating sustainability objectives, responsible innovation, and active support for the communities in which it operates into its business strategy. Kineton promotes concrete education, culture, and social inclusion initiatives, enhancing the territory and generating a positive, measurable, and lasting impact.
Today, Kineton is more than a technology company: it is an ecosystem in continuous evolution, where talent, research, and technology meet to build the future.
Innovation is at the heart of Kineton, which continuously invests in research and development to transform emerging technologies into concrete solutions capable of addressing today’s challenges and anticipating those of tomorrow. Through its Innovation Lab [link to page], Kineton fosters a dynamic environment where academic knowledge meets industrial expertise, promoting cross-pollination between business, research, and education. This hub of ideas and experimentation enables the launch of joint projects with universities and research centers, accelerating the validation of new technologies and creating a virtuous cycle that boosts skill development and nurtures emerging talent.
Some of the most visionary ventures within the Kineton ecosystem were born from this forge of innovation: KineCar, dedicated to automotive technologies; Vulkan Marine, focused on innovation in the nautical sector; and Kineton Farm, an experimental agricultural company.
