eCosCentric Limited is a privately held company dedicated to open source software, with a distinct focus on eCos (Embedded Configurable Operating System). Founded in 2002 by the original eCos developers,[1] it has headquarters in Cambridge, England from where it continues to support, develop and provide commercial services for eCos and RedBoot.[2] eCosCentric also provides a commercially strengthened version of eCos, eCosPro, which is targeted at professional developers looking to integrate eCos within commercial products.[3]

In 2017, eCosCentric Limited announced the latest 4.1 release of eCosPro, a "stable, fully tested and supported version of the operating system and RedBoot bootstrap firmware."[4]
