The integration of Distrito K will allow us to make a qualitative leap in the Spanish market, strengthening our position in a key segment such as ERP, which has exceeded the value of €10 billion in Europe and is expected to grow to €14 billion by 2027”, says Federico Leproux, CEO of TeamSystem. “This acquisition is integral to our international expansion strategy. Over the past few years, we have invested significantly in Spain, with six completed operations, and in Turkey, consolidating our role as a leading player for the digital transition of SMEs and professionals across Europe.”
