A carefully developed plan

Databalance was the first building block of an ambitious journey to establish the leading Managed IT Solutions Partner in the Dutch market. This journey is based on a carefully designed plan built around well-considered technology building blocks that are essential for creating a best-in-class IT partner.

Databalance delivers customer-specific cloud infrastructure for mission-critical IT environments. With a strong emphasis on continuity, security, and flexibility, Databalance enables organizations to accelerate their digital transformation and growth.

The strategy combines sustainable organic growth by moving up the value chain, differentiating, and optimizing solutions offering, and increasing share of wallet with existing customers, with inorganic growth through the execution of a well-defined M&A strategy. Since the start of this journey, we have welcomed SJ-Solutions, IT Creation, 3fifty, Bradon and Flowerbed Engineering, into the group, strengthening our capabilities in cloud solutions, data management, cybersecurity, and complex IT infrastructures.

Today, Databalance employs over 100 IT professionals and is headquartered in Nieuwkuijk.

HIGHLIGHTS INVESTMENT

Since the start of the journey, Nordi Malih has been appointed as the Group CEO. Nordi brings over 20 years of relevant experience in this industry, an impressive track record, and has built a strong team around him.
