BID’S CONTRIBUTION 

o The management team of midoco chose BID Equity as its investor to reach two goals: Broaden its international customer base and grow the business travel segment. BID Equity has subsequently supported the management team with a variety of organic and inorganic measures. By acquiring Swiss profile data management software provider Umbrella AG, BID Equity helped midoco to complement its core product that is characterized by long sales cycles with a powerful solution that caters for the same customer segments but requires less explanation and implementation. In parallel organic improvements have been implemented in the following areas:

  • Modularizing and standardizing the product offering
  • Modernization of the product development process
  • Professionalization of inbound and CRM processes
  • Pricing optimization

As the next wave of growth was aimed at North America, BID Equity’s co-investor aimed to find a new owner for its shares and sold its shares in 2019. The BID Equity partnerships stays invested and continues to contribute to midoco’s success story.
