Eindhoven, 4 February 2025 - IT Managed Service Provider ILC-Europe is taking the next step in growth by merging with Helmond-based Enter Automatisering. With this strategic cooperation, both companies are strengthening their position in the Eindhoven region and are jointly setting a course towards market leadership.
Thanks to Enter Automatisering's years of experience in the field of Secure Workplaces, both parties are able to support their clients even better with secure, scalable and future-proof ICT solutions. For years, Enter Automatisering has had a strong focus on information security and, by extension, clients in the financial sector, where strict regulations and compliance requirements apply. "We are just as careful about the client's AFM licence as the client itself is".
"The cooperation with Enter Automation is an important step in our growth strategy," said Joost Wittgen, managing director of ILC-Europe. "Together, we can respond even better to the growing demand for online workplace management and communication services, in which security and compliance play an increasingly important role."
Marc Bullens, director-owner of Enter Automatisering, also sees great benefits in the merger: "Joining forces with ILC-Europe gives us access to a wider range of specialisms and more colleagues with in-depth expertise. This enables us to tackle major challenges in ICT, such as cybercrime and changing laws and regulations, even more effectively. In addition, our customers benefit from the economies of scale and scope offered by ILC-Europe, as part of Smizer. With our in-depth knowledge of information security, supported by our certifications, together we can be an even stronger partner for the financial sector and other industries where security and reliability are essential."
The partnership is part of the broader growth strategy of Smizer, the MSP buy-and-build platform of investment company Riverdam.
With this joining of forces, ILC-Europe and Enter Automatisering are taking a big step towards market leadership in the Eindhoven region, continuing to optimally support businesses and non-profit organisations with innovative, reliable and, above all, secure ICT solutions.
