BID’S CONTRIBUTION

Together with BID Equity, the management plans to further scale Kobold’s business domestically and internationally. The acquisition of untermStrich realized the first internationalization to Austria. As a central step, building out the got-to-market organization will be advancing the companies cloud solution to fully match the enterprise version. In particular, BID Equity will support Kobold’s management in the following areas:

  • Professionalisation of the sales model
  • Scaling the existing channel model to a channel-first approach
  • Modularizing and standardizing the product offering
  • Cloud migration of key application components
  • Professional finance and HR management
  • Modernization of the product development process
  • Professionalization of inbound and CRM processes

BID Equity convinced us in the acquisition process by a professional appearance, transparency in the communication of their ideas and last but not least by an adequate purchase price. We are very excited about the development of the KOBOLD Group.
