Accso’s first international office was inaugurated on 16 February 2023. Adam Wayland, managing director of Accso South Africa (Pty) Ltd., and Jürgen Artmann, founder of Accso GmbH, cut the ribbon to officially open the office to business. The Cape Town Team has grown to over 17 seasoned software engineers since its inception in May 2022 and has been hugely successful in working with their German colleagues on client projects so far.

As part of Accso’s strategy to go international, the Cape Town team will develop new clients in new markets outside of Germany, ranging from the UK to other European Union countries, including Asia and Africa. In addition, the Cape Town office enriches Accso´s German offices with active professional and cultural exchange. Finally, the office actively supports local engineering communities with speakers and provides the office as the venue to host their events.
