The Dutch investment fund Health Investment Partners (HIP) invests in Dytter, an online platform that matches healthcare providers with healthcare organisations. This is the result of a successful investment round, in which several interested parties came forward to provide Dytter with a capital injection. ECFG has guided this process from head to tail; from preparation to the selection of investors to the guidance of the transaction itself.
With this growth capital Dytter can realize its ambitious growth plans more quickly. For example, this financing is used to make the product smarter and more scalable, and to double the personnel capacity of the software development team. Dytter’s short-term goal is to scale up the care platform outside the Randstad, according to director André Piso.
Not only money, also knowledge
The investment round therefore arose from the need for growth capital. Dytter called in the advice of ECFG for this, given our expertise in the field of smart capital. André Piso: “We were looking for parties that not only put money into something, but also bring knowledge.” This knowledge was decisive for Dytter and André Piso in their choice.
Ambitious and driven team
HIP is especially pleased with the ambitious and driven team, the technology behind the platform and the speed with which Dytter is storming the market. In addition, HIP is charmed by the systematic approach with which talent is developed within Dytter. Donar van den Berg of HIP: “We invest in growth companies that make a positive contribution to the healthcare market. We believe that the Dytter Platform can make an important contribution to healthcare by unlocking scarce nursing workforce. Moreover, we recognize ourselves in Dytter’s mission to help arrange good care affordably, quickly and without hassle. Of course, we are happy and proud that we can contribute to the realization of this great mission.”
Growth in the Netherlands and abroad
André Piso: “In order to realize post-corona growth, you need capital. This investment provides an immediate acceleration to realize our plans. This allows us to quickly make up for the delay caused by corona.” In the coming months, Dytter plans to expand to provinces outside the Randstad and to further shape the expansion into Germany. The exact amount of the investment is not mentioned.

ECFG attaches great value to lasting relationships. Promax is an example of such a relationship. We are therefore proud to be able to guide them in their growth. ECFG accompanied the takeover process of Rodenburg ICT Solutions by Promax. A great step in Promax’s growth ambitions. Read the press release and more information about this acquisition below.
Promax, an IT company specializing in groundbreaking Cloud, Security and Artificial Intelligence solutions, today announces that it has signed an agreement to acquire Rodenburg ICT Solutions. Rodenburg ICT Solutions is a provider of ICT and automation for small and medium-sized enterprises.
Promax strengthens itself by taking over Rodenburg ICT Solutions
For Promax, the takeover is a logical step. It is strengthening its activities with this takeover by adding an attractive customer set and a qualified ICT team to its activities. Leon Rodenburg and his team have built up an excellent reputation over the years. They have thus built up a loyal customer base. The former director of Rodenburg ICT Solutions, Leon Rodenburg, will take on the role of Service Delivery Manager within Promax. This is seen as an enrichment of the Promax team.
A good match
“Thanks to the takeover, we are able to better serve the customers of Rodenburg ICT Solutions as well as those of Promax. We share the same corporate values of integrity, high quality and respect. Together we can provide even better service to our customers everywhere and at all times. With the new company, we can respond better to our customers’ questions in the field of security, an area of expertise in which Promax is very strong,” says Leon Rodenburg, director of Rodenburg ICT Solutions. “In addition, there is a demand for a 24/7 breakdown service for IT support. The addition of AI services is also of added value for our customers. I myself worked at Promax from 2004 to 2006 and know the company well. That I have a lot of confidence in this step is evident from the fact that I myself will be joining Promax. What I recognize in Promax is that the interests of the customer always come first, the customer is the driving force for everything we do.”
Working safely in the Cloud
Promax is able to serve both large companies and small companies well, thanks to its Cloud workplace proposition.
“Microsoft has come up with a Premium Business license with which we can also excellently facilitate sole proprietorships, such as self-employed people,” says Judith Littel, general manager of Promax. “For a few bucks a month, they can work safely in the Cloud, their laptop or PC is provided with the latest updates remotely and they can call our service desk unlimited for support and questions. Our passion is therefore that every company, large or small, should be able to safely use the latest technologies and developments. In a simple and affordable way. We are committed to that.”
“Thanks to this acquisition, we can further strengthen our team with the skilled colleagues from Rodenburg ICT. It is extremely difficult to find good IT engineers. We are therefore happy that we can further expand our team in this way. This also benefits Promax’s customers. With Leon Rodenburg as Service Delivery Manager, our customers get a highly experienced contact person who puts their interests first in everything he does,” says Judith Littel.
