A successful partnership
KidsKonnect was created through the merger of four leading Dutch software companies: Flexkids, Konnect, HHB, and TecSoft. The company became the leading provider of childcare management software in the Netherlands, serving medium and large childcare organizations with tools for child and employee planning, as well as parent communication.
On December 15, 2021, Five Arrows Growth Capital acquired 100% of the shares in KidsKonnect, marking a successful exit for Vortex Capital Partners.
