Tiago Franco founded Imaginary Cloud after a realisation whilst managing one of his projects as a PMO.
"Having been a Senior Developer and Project Manager for large corporations, I believed the development process was broken and it could be improved by simply focusing more on the end user."
With a strong background in Software Engineering acquired from distinguished entities like CERN, the European Space Agency, and the UK Ministry of Defence, Tiago started his career on complex and quality-centric software projects. Quality-centric software is often challenging to use and prone to human error because it doesn’t focus on the user. Conversely, many companies prioritise user experience but compromise on quality. Recognising the need to merge these aspects, Tiago founded Imaginary Cloud, a software development company dedicated to creating user-centric, reliable, and scalable solutions that drive digital transformation.
DRIVING DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION
Since our inception in May 2010, Imaginary Cloud has scaled over 300 digital products across Europe, the United States, and the Middle East. We are committed to transforming how digital products are built by prioritising the user’s experience and leveraging our technical expertise.
PARTNERING
FOR SUCCESS
At Imaginary Cloud, we offer more than software solutions; we provide strategic partnerships. Our elite delivery processes and deep vertical expertise ensure that every solution surpasses modern digital transformation needs. By collaborating closely with your team, our expert consultants deliver faster, better, and scalable results to strengthen your competitive edge in a rapidly evolving market.
INNOVATION
AT THE CORE
Our user-centric and agile methodologies are designed to seamlessly integrate into your workflows, allowing us to address your specific needs and ensure effective user adoption. We don’t just build software; we build solutions that propel your business forward.
We pride ourselves on building strong partnerships built on transparency, trust, and cooperation. You can expect a partner with strong worth ethics, entirely focused on problem-solving and on building long-term engagements. That is why many of our customers stay with us for longer than two years.
