Nexer is taking another major step forward in the engineering field with a strategic expansion in Stockholm, Linköping and Västerås. Annica Sunnman, former Managing Director of Nexer India, has been appointed Chief Operating Officer (COO) for Nexer Engineering and will lead the initiative.

The Nexer Engineering business area offers solutions in embedded systems, hardware-software integration, mechanics, electronics, production and project management.

Already established in Gothenburg, Malmö, Västerås, Linköping and Stockholm, Nexer Engineering reported impressive growth of 20% in 2024. The business area now continues its expansion in hardware-related software development, driven by a robust engineering tradition, innovative strength, and strategic recruitment of top talent.
