€10 million in pool financing will accompany the entry into North America of an Italian excellence active in digital services for the management of the real estate sector
 

Cassa Depositi e Prestiti, BNL BNP PARIBAS, SIMEST (CDP Group) and SACE support the international development of eFM, a leading Italian group in digital services for the design and management of real estate, with total funding of 10 million euro.

The operation contributes to eFM’s acquisition of two companies already active as distributors of its products in North America and operating in the key sectors of healthcare, Public Administration, corporate and education: Applied Data Systems Inc. and Horizant Solutions Inc.

In detail, the operation supported by CDP together with BNL BNP PARIBAS and SIMEST envisages the provision of resources amounting to 10 million euro, with shares respectively of 3 million euro, 3 million euro and 4 million euro. The intervention of SIMEST was also supported by the resources of the Venture Capital and Participatory Investments Section of the 394/81 Fund, managed in cooperation with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation.

Thanks to these acquisitions, eFM will be able to strengthen its presence in the United States and establish a direct foothold in Canada, accelerating growth on an international scale. The initiative also consolidates an industrial model already developed in Europe and South America and simultaneously strengthens the group's Italian base through the development of technical and project-related skills supporting global activities.

The action confirms the key role of institutional actors in supporting the international growth of Italian companies and strengthening the competitiveness of products Made in Italy in global markets.

Daniele Di Fausto, CEO of eFM Global, stated: “We thank CDP, BNL BNP PARIBAS, SIMEST and SACE for believing in our ability to develop advanced models for managing and developing spaces through an approach that integrates data, services and digital infrastructure, placing them at the service of experiences capable of generating value and impact. Their commitment contributes to the competitiveness of products Made in Italy around the world and for us represents the recognition of an industrial trajectory rooted in deep expertise and developed in major markets worldwide, bringing a new vision to address the complexities of contemporary real estate. This operation allows us to accelerate our international growth and solidify our leadership in the digital management of places as experiences”.
