Company history
The CGF CounselGroupFrankfurt AG was created based on the idea of offering each client custom solutions in the IT environment.
Wilhelm Treiber, former Managing Director of Roland Berger do Brasil, had a vision – holistic consultancy, which implies more than short-term solutions – and therefore, in 2000, he joined the CIO GmbH company, first as an employee, then as a co-shareholder.
2005 is the year when Mr. Treiber took over all the shares of what was then called CIO Management AG. Important structure modifications took place and also the company was renamed CGF CounselGroupFrankfurt AG. The special approach of our company should already be reflected in the name.
Customer and market requirements soon led to CGF expansion. The first international subsidiary was CGF Asia Co. Ltd, founded in 2008, in Bangkok, Thailand. Four years later, CGF Group reached the North American continent, when CGF LLC was established in Greenville, South Carolina, USA. In 2017 took place the launch of CGF S.A. de C.V., in San Luis Potosi, Mexico. Back in Europe, in 2018, the Germany based company opened four more subsidiaries. Two of them are located in Bucharest and Timişoara, Romania – named CGF Romania S.R.L. –, and another one in Kharkiv, Ukraine – named CGF Ukraine LLC.
