Philosophy
Because of its acquisitions of IVM and Caran Semcon now has an active role in this consolidation. There is a clear trend towards the European market for product development being split between a few large players like Semcon. Joining under one brand, Semcon, the group ease communication and open for customers and partners to use Semcon's capacity globally.

To build and strengthen the complete range of expertise that is required for taking on “complete vehicle development” projects will be the base for our development over the foreseeable future.

The number of recently trained engineers doesn't cover demand,
which will affect the market to a great extent. The huge demand
for engineers that characterised 2007 will, because of vehicle manufacturers' expansive model programme, also means that the hunt for these prized engineers will intensify in the coming years. A great challenge and at the same time an opportunity for Semcon that has a heritage and record of decentralized recruitment and continuous organic growth.

Every individual is important and significant in Semcon Group. Our culture is characterised by openness,the ability to see opportunities and pride in doing our best, while having fun together. We believe in the individual’s ability to take responsibility and believe that this enables the individual to develop.

We always strive to be one step ahead and not only provide the best solution to the customer, but also help drive developments forward. That means development of methods that increase speed and accuracy in bringing new products to the market for our customers.
But also use our engineering expertise to help making the automotive sector improve performance in difficult areas like i.e. hybrid technology integration and safety aspects.
