Fen acquires Wright Design Limited
This strategic step affirms Fen Technology’s passion for building the ‘go-to’ product development team, bringing together a wealth of exceptional talent and expertise.
Both companies were founded more than 20 years ago, and have since helped design, develop and bring a range of innovative products to market, with clients ranging from technology start-ups to global consumer brands. While Fen Technology focuses on electronic engineering, software development and project management, Wright Design, also based in Cambridge, specialises in industrial and mechanical design.
Product development always requires close collaboration across multiple disciplines, and Fen has long experience managing relationships with external partners to deliver client projects. But the company will now be able to call on the creative and technical skills of Wright Design as an integral part of Fen’s team. This not only streamlines processes for the in-house team but also smooths the product development process for clients.
“This acquisition strengthens our ‘front-end’ offer, combines two great engineering teams, and opens up new manufacturing options,” says Steve Baker, Managing Director of Fen Technology. “Enhanced capabilities and more efficient project delivery is good news for our clients. And the acquisition also underpins our dedication to build the ‘go-to’ product development team.”
At the start of this exciting new chapter, Fen Technology’s enthusiasm for the future is shared by the team at Wright Design.
“Joining forces with Fen Technology opens up a world of possibilities,” says Dan Walton, Director at Wright Design. “By aligning the complementary skills of both our teams, we can fully support our clients from initial concept to product manufacture.”
Wright Design’s work spans industrial and consumer segments, with a clear emphasis on usability and manufacturability.
