Servelots was founded in 1999 by a group of computer scientists who wanted to provide a highly cost-effective but user-friendly software for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with a special focus on organisations working in the social development sectors. Over the years, the opportunity to work with SMEs and the social sector has resulted in a certain awareness of the ground realities, which have furthered research engagement.
As an open source group, Servelots strives to push code into software commons. While much of the research work comes under the broad banner of technology for society, the technology development work is nurtured by specific application domain needs.
