    Clip Industrie publishes and distributes software solutions for ERP and computer-aided management systems for SMEs. The heart of our business is the management of industrial production. "We meticulously collect enterprise data and restore them with the greatest possible intelligence to serve the strategy of our customers." Clipper is a verticalized business solution quickly exploitable. Helios ERP is more suited to more substantial SMEs, particularly in the aeronautical field (POTEZ, HALGAND, WE ARE AEROSPACE, NEXTEAM GROUP...). The economic model of Clip Industrie is primarily based on his extensive knowledge of industrial organization and monitoring the daily use of its products. Its 1,850 clients are mainly located in France, Switzerland, Eastern Europe and North Africa in various sectors: aerospace, automotive, medical, rail, watchmaker, composite materials and new energies. The Clip industry solutions are designed for industrial companies, workshops or subsidiaries of large corporations (Michelin, Air Force, Eiffage, Koné...) and to numerous subcontractors of Airbus Group, Dassault and Safran.

We had many conversations with private equity funds but the one that stood out was with the Ardian Growth team because they really understood our business and, like us, they had a truly long-term vision of how Kapten & Son could develop.

This investment by one of the world’s leading investment funds is a further testament to Ivalua’s long term strategy and business model. This additional capital will allow us to deliver ever more value to our customers and secure future growth.

We have invested significantly in the business over the past three years. To accelerate our growth, it was important that we choose a Partner with a strong understanding of the issues relating to international growth as well as the challenges associated with expanding our product range. Given the team’s track record and entrepreneurial approach, Ardian Growth was the obvious choice of partner for us.
