Press release
2 July 2026

Attrecto Zrt. has reached an important milestone in its growth strategy: the company is acquiring all assets connected to Bobcats Coding Kft.’s core business. As a result of the transaction, from 1 July 2026 Bobcats Coding’s projects continue under the Attrecto brand, as part of Attrecto Zrt.

The acquisition brings together the strengths of two fast growing Hungarian technology companies. Attrecto, founded in 2010, achieved revenue of more than HUF 1.5 billion in 2025, while continuing to strengthen its position in enterprise digital product development and artificial intelligence. Bobcats Coding, founded just three years ago in 2023, generated revenue of over HUF 440 million last year, primarily through development services for US startup clients.

Following completion of the transaction, Bobcats Coding Kft. will continue to exist legally as a holding company. The Bobcats Coding brand and its operations will be fully absorbed into Attrecto.

“Attrecto has spent 15 years developing enterprise digital products and AI solutions. That gives us a solid foundation to become one of the winners in an IT market being reshaped by the AI wave. The intention of the owners and management is clear: to build Attrecto into a defining innovation player in the European AI segment. Over the coming years, this growth will involve both scaling up and clear international expansion. That’s my mandate, and the acquisition of Bobcats Coding, like the acquisition of our education and consulting arm, the Spark Institute, is an excellent part of that growth strategy,” said Shi Robson, CEO of Attrecto.

The acquisition fits naturally into Attrecto’s long-term growth plans. The transaction increases the company’s professional capacity, its international presence and its competitive edge in AI-driven development, all at once.

Over the past three years, Bobcats Coding has provided development services primarily to US startups, while building AI-centred working methods and delivery processes that give it a clear edge in the market.

“Over the past three years, the Bobcats Coding engineering and delivery team has developed methods and processes that are unique in the domestic market. That comes down to two things: our excellent, world-class team, and our strategic business development decision to work almost exclusively for the US market, mostly with startups. It’s a less regulated environment, where clients didn’t just tolerate AI development, they expected it. That let us build up capabilities we couldn’t have gained working with other segments,” said Barbara Varga-Baráth, co-founder and CDO of Bobcats Coding.

One of the transaction’s key strategic values is the integration of the network and business development expertise built up in the US market.

“In three years, through deliberate sales and marketing investment, we built a US business development team from scratch that few Hungarian IT companies have matched. We proved that structured experimentation and disciplined execution can break into the US market. Combining these team level strengths with Attrecto’s enterprise references opens up exciting new horizons for expansion in the US,” said Barbara Fazekas, managing director and co-founder of Bobcats Coding.
