Company overview
Civitanavi Systems was established in 2012 with a vision to become a principal player in the provision of the design, development, and manufacture of high-tech solutions of Inertial Navigation, Geo Reference and Stabilization systems for both Industrial and Defense use (dual use).
Civitanavi Systems is an Italian company which provides domestically inertial solutions and has developed in a short time an international market for it specialized products.
The company has been able to quickly develop and assemble a team of world leading experts in inertial technology with a solid background in the design and development of inertial sensors, navigation software, certification, and manufacturing processes.
The company has acquired customers and end users for its inertial products in both industrial (mining, oil and gas) and defence (naval, land and air domains) in a relatively short time.
Civitanavi Systems S.p.A. is a listed company on Euronext Milan, it is controlled by Civitanavi Systems Ltd (holding) which unites an international pool of strategic investors.
