Inovatec was founded by Vladimir & Danijela Kovacevic in 2006. As a young boy, Vlad had two passions – sports and computers. But growing up in Belgrade in the 1990’s was not easy. The experience of growing up during the Yugoslav war forced both Danijela and Vlad to be fearless and resourceful in solving problems – and to think out of the box, qualities that today still define the company they built.

In 2000 Vlad received a scholarship from a university in Louisiana. Before long, he was working for Kodak as a Process Engineer at their advanced X-Ray manufacturing plant in Oregon.

In 2006, Vlad followed his wife Danijela, herself an world class athlete and engineer, to Canada. An early client was an auto loan company. Vlad’s breakthrough was understanding that the process methodology he’d learned at Kodak’s X-Ray manufacturing plant could be transformed and re- purposed to drive efficiencies for his auto loan client. He set to work.

Piece by piece, Vlad started to build out the technology that solved practical business problems for his client. The experience gave him insider knowledge of the challenges and opportunities in the Lending sector. By 2011, he decided to integrate everything he’d learned into a stand-alone Lending platform. He called the company Inovatec, a fusion of innovation and technology.

With years of industry experience under his belt and a crack team of developers in Danijela’s former home town of Kragujevac, the team re-wrote the software again in 2013, creating a state-of-the-art Lending platform that attracted attention throughout the industry. From enthusiastic athlete to technology entrepreneur, Vlad’s spirit of fearless innovation and relentless improvement is stronger than ever at Inovatec.

In the summer of 2020, Inovatec commenced a rebrand of it’s signature product series “Compass” in preparation for launch of it’s most powerful new version yet: JAVELIN.

JAVELIN will start shipping to clients in Canada and the USA in 2020.
