Early Years[]

In 1993, Arkadiy Dobkin and Leo Lozner founded EPAM, a global software engineering services company, in New Jersey, USA and Minsk, Belarus.[4]

In 2002, EPAM was ranked publicly for the first time as a fast-growing company by Deloitte & Touche.[5]

In 2012, EPAM was listed on New York Stock Exchange under moniker EPAM, becoming the first company from Belarus on NYSE.[6][7]

Acquisitions[]

In 2004, EPAM acquired Fathom Technology, a software development services company based in Budapest, Hungary, expanding its offshore services beyond North America.[8] A couple years later,[when?] EPAM secured an equity investment from Siguler Guff to fund its competitive growth plans.[9]

In 2006, EPAM acquired VDI, a software development services company with delivery centers in Russia, which expanded the company’s presence in the CIS region.[10] That year, EPAM CEO Arkadiy Dobkin was named one of the Top 25 Most Influential Consultants of the Year by Consulting Magazine.[11]

In late 2012, EPAM made two acquisitions – Thoughtcorp, which expanded its service offerings in Agile, business intelligence and mobile,[12] and Empathy Lab, which established a digital engagement practice focusing on customer experience, design and eCommerce.[13]

EPAM made two acquisitions in 2018 to expand its service offerings: Continuum Innovation (now EPAM Continuum) [14] and TH_NK[15] to add consulting capabilities and develop its digital and service design practices. Also that year, EPAM launched InfoNgen®, a text analytics and sentiment analysis enterprise software product that uses artificial intelligence.[16]

The company also productized TelescopeAI®, an artificial intelligence-based platform for IT operations and workforce management, which won a 2019 Big Innovation Award presented by the Business Intelligence Group.[17]

In 2019, EPAM joined the Blockchain in Transport Alliance (BiTA).[18] That year, the company launched EPAM Continuum, its service for business, experience and technology consulting.

The company also launched EPAM SolutionsHub, a catalogue of its software products, accelerators and open source platforms.
