Denmark's leading digital learning platform joins Visma
With the acquisition of Meebook, Visma strengthens its position within the education sector in Denmark and the Nordics.
Meebook has developed the most widely used digital learning platform in Danish primary schools. The cloud-based software solution is currently implemented in 45 Danish municipalities, making everyday life easier for teachers, students and parents.
Visma already supplies software for the education sector in Norway, Sweden and Finland. The addition of Meebook will further strengthen Visma's position in the Nordics in general, and serve as an important building block in the Group’s total offering for the education sector in Denmark.
"We are proud to welcome Meebook and the talented people behind it to Visma. With its strong market reputation and solid strategic position, Meebook has all the prerequisites to continue its growth in Denmark, now supported by Visma, and also develop and scale the platform to new markets," says Allan Lundgaard Hamilton, Visma's director for the public sector in Denmark.
Mebook was founded in 2011 by Jesper Rømer and Søren Adolph, both teachers by education. Their mission was to develop a digital teaching tool where the focal point is learning and didactics, rather than IT and technology, and that’s why Meebook has been created through close collaboration with Danish teachers and municipalities. Now, they are ready for the next step.
“We are proud of the solution we have created, because it helps facilitate and strengthen the teachers' work and collaboration between the Danish educational institutions. While Meebook is adapted to Danish conditions and requirements, the platform is a very scalable product. We look forward to becoming part of Visma, which, with its brand, size and competences, can contribute to getting Meebook into new markets," says Jesper Rømer, director and co-founder of Meebook.
Meebook will continue as an independent company within Visma, with Jesper Rømer as Managing Director and Søren Adolph as Director of Product Development.
