CI&T was founded in 1995 as an IT group working with research and development (R&D) companies for software development before expanding to provide technical services to nearshore customers.[ 4] [ 5] Early clients included IBM , Hewlett-Packard , Vale , Natura , and Globo .[ 6] [ 7] [ 8]
CI&T opened an office in Pennsylvania in 2006[ 9] and in Tokyo (Japan) and Ningbo (China) in 2009.[ 10]

In June 2021, it announced the acquisition of Dextra, an IT services company headquartered in Campinas, near CI&T geographically.[ 13] In November 2021, the company filed for an initial public offering and got listed on New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).[ 14]
