AXIOM PARTNERS ACQUIRES SWISS MARKET LEADER SWISSLINX
The Swiss-based investor Axiom Partners has acquired Swiss IT staffing and consultancy company Swisslinx with immediate effect. After acquisitions of amongst others, the Dutch labels Circle8 (formerly De Staffing Groep), FixedToday and Seven Stars, the deal marks a very important step in its international expansion for Axiom Partners and Circle 8. With an impressive client portfolio and strong results, Swisslinx is market leader in the Swiss financial services sector. The full acquisition of the company fits within the buy-and-build strategy of Axiom Partners. Financial details have not been disclosed.
Swisslinx will continue to operate under the current management and brand name, and will operate autonomous from other staffing organizations within Circle8 Group. “We are proud to expand Axiom’s staffing strategy internationally with Swisslinx”, says Guus Franke, founder of Axiom. “Expansion in Switzerland is an important step in increasing our international visibility, as our aim is to become the largest IT staffing group in Europe. With the acquisition of Swisslinx, Axiom becomes market leader in the Swiss financial industry and Europe’s largest ICT staffing supplier. This will facilitate our entry into other EU markets.
