Milestones

From an entity of one self-employed engineer to a global multidisciplinary development consulting Group, it sounds like a long way and indeed it is. Looking back at the LDK Consultants’ history and progress, it is indeed a mirage of life itself, an organism that started small and as it grew, it became more complex, experienced and responsible for its deeds.
LDK Consultants survived and prospered in global financial crises because it offered the right mix of development services with engineering prudence. We always challenge and re-evaluate our position and now we are again expanding into new markets, starting from the premise that what we know and apply is neither good enough for us, nor for our clients.
