Pini Group, a Swiss engineering and design company with a presence in 25 countries, is set to rebrand as ARX from January 2025. This transformation follows years of organic growth and mergers, which have expanded the group’s expertise across diverse engineering and design disciplines. The rebranding marks a new chapter for the company, reflecting its evolution into a global hub for innovative infrastructure and sustainable development.
The rebranding process will span the entirety of 2025 to allow legal entities across all locations to adapt to the new name. ARX promises to retain the legacy and values of its founding entities while embracing a broader range of capabilities. The move aims to position the company among the ENR Top 225 International Design Firms, with aspirations of entering the top 100.
Andrea Galli, Group CEO and recipient of the Swiss EY Entrepreneur of the Year 2024 award, highlighted the significance of the change:
“This development reflects our ability to do more. At ARX, we aim to showcase the versatility and strength of our global talent. Our mission remains clear: to transform communities and make it happen.”
Roberto Gerosa, Chairman of ARX, added:
“Our rebrand encapsulates who we are: a network of experts tackling complex design challenges. Whether it’s precise technical tasks or large multidisciplinary projects, we bring confidence and agility to every challenge.”
The name ARX, derived from Latin, symbolises strength and connection, aligning with the company’s ethos of combining the best of its history with future innovation. The company’s Swiss roots remain integral to its operations, as does its commitment to sustainable development.
Over the past few years, Pini Group has broadened its capabilities through strategic acquisitions and collaborations. This expansion has brought together expertise in complex engineering, sustainable infrastructure, and cutting-edge design, creating a multifaceted global organisation. ARX represents this unified identity, providing a platform for further growth and innovation in the construction and design sectors.
The rebranding reflects Pini Group’s evolution into a comprehensive network, integrating the knowledge and experience of its various entities. With thousands of professionals worldwide, ARX is poised to take on ambitious projects in both local and global markets.
ARX’s transition is expected to reinforce its role as a leader in sustainable and innovative engineering solutions. The group’s agility and multidisciplinary approach will continue to position it as a key player in tackling the challenges of an ever-changing global landscape.
As ARX prepares for its debut in 2025, the company invites clients, partners, and stakeholders to join in celebrating this milestone.
