Main has been featured in an exclusive article by ITWatch, highlighting our first half of 2024 and our strategic focus on Northern European software companies. As detailed in the article, we've made significant strides in Denmark, starting with the acquisition of a majority stake in Omnidocs and continuing with two more recent investments: the add-on acquisition of Byggeprojekt.dk by Prostream by Pro4all and the acquisition of Nextway Software. Our commitment to the Nordic region remains strong, and we're actively engaging in dialogs with several companies for potential investments. In the article Wessel Ploegmakers, Partner and Head of Nordics at Main, mentioned: “It wouldn't surprise me if we manage to make a few more platform investments in the Nordics this year, and that there will be a Danish one in between,” Our "buy and build" strategy has become our hallmark, turning platform investments into growth engines.
