The collaboration aims to modernize Catella’s IT infrastructure across 12 countries and 25 cities, leveraging Sopra Steria’s expertise in digital solutions, cloud technology, cybersecurity, and regulatory compliance.

This partnership marks a significant step in Catella’s journey to becoming a digital frontrunner within the real estate industry. By transitioning routine IT tasks to Sopra Steria, Catella will be able to shift its focus toward innovation and business growth, freeing up valuable resources.
