Cambashi is headquartered in Cambridge, UK, where it was founded by Cambridge University graduate Mike Evans in 1984.
Evans worked in the research and development phase of the Computer Aided Design (CAD) industry in the 1960s at MIT in the US, and Cambridge in the UK. Later, he was involved in worldwide sales and marketing of CAD in Japan.
Over the years, Cambashi’s scope has expanded beyond CAD and product development application areas into enterprise applications, IT infrastructure and mission-critical applications.
Cambashi has grown to provide truly international coverage through our worldwide network of associates, enabling us to operate globally from our headquarters in Cambridge, UK.
