VERTEX STAR d.o.o. was founded in 2004 by Nenad Božić M.Eng., following several years of experience in designing and engineering electric steelmaking, continuous casting, and rolling mills. We began with two engineers and have grown over the years into a team of fifteen full-time engineers, supported by more than ten external collaborators who are experts in various fields of science and engineering.
Here are some key milestones and challenges in our history.
