IT Genetics, a Romanian technology company specialising in digital automation and operational efficiency solutions for businesses, announced its intention to list on the AeRO market of the Bucharest Stock Exchange in the first quarter of 2026. The company confirmed the plan this week, stating that the listing will follow a private placement designed to raise capital for its next development phase, which includes continued international expansion.

The listing preparations come amid growing interest in regional technology issuers on the AeRO market, which has attracted several Romanian companies active in software, automation and digital services.

Founded in 2007 by Liviu Sima and Ștefan Axinte, IT Genetics reported a turnover of RON100mn (€20mn) in 2024. The company currently operates in Romania, Hungary, Bulgaria, Spain and Italy, and has stepped up its presence in Western European markets over the past two years. Both founders hold 50% of the company through their respective holding structures.

The company said that admission to trading on the AeRO market would provide access to development capital, greater visibility and external validation at a stage when it is preparing for wider regional growth. The listing will be preceded by a private placement offering up to one million newly issued shares.

IT Genetics aims to raise RON7.5mn through the private placement. According to the company, the capital will be used to expand operations in Italy and to enter new markets in France and Germany. It will also support strengthening domestic operations by creating additional regional teams.

The funds are expected to contribute to the construction of a new production facility for the Zinta brand and to further development of the Toolbox platform, which forms part of the company’s portfolio of proprietary software products. Management stated that resources will also be directed towards scaling existing solutions and pursuing strategic acquisitions that could complement its technology ecosystem.

IT Genetics said that it would publish further details on the private placement terms ahead of its planned launch. The company added that the planned investments aim to consolidate its position as a regional supplier of automation technologies in sectors including retail, logistics and manufacturing.
