Its cloud-based applications and services have been used on a number of landmark projects in the Republic, including the Aviva Stadium and Dundrum Town Centre.

Speaking to The Irish Times, the company said it expects 75 per cent of growth revenue will come from overseas by the end of 2022.

“Evolving our name marks a strategic pivot in our future direction and enables opportunities to market the Fexillon brand in pursuit of future growth and expansion,” said Mr Beggan.

The company also announced a new partnership with Microsoft for the development and testing of a range of solutions, including Digital Twins, HoloLens technology and BIM integration.
