When was DATEV Germany founded?
More than five decades ago, in February 1966, DATEV eG was founded as a cooperative self-help organisation. As the number of members grew, it became possible to set up a computer centre in 1969. Following the introduction of remote data transmission in 1974 and establishing an electronic data transmission network in June 1976, DATEV and the Japanese company TKC manifested their alliance in 1982. In 1996, DATEV's founder and CEO, Dr Heinz Sebiger, retired and handed the reins to Prof Dieter Kempf. At the beginning of 2000, DATEV expanded into the European markets with cooperations in the Czech Republic, Austria, and Italy. Other partnerships and joint ventures, such as with SINFOPAC S.L., followed. In 2015, the DATEV IT Campus was opened in Nuremberg as a software development centre. Dr Robert Mayr became Chairman of DATEV's executive board on 1 April 2016.
