WorxInvest joins Gimv's Anchor investing approach

• Gimv and WorxInvest are joining forces, combining their strength and firepower, around Gimv's Anchor investing approach, designed to build long-standing strategic partnerships with leading growth companies. This will allow these companies to attract long term capital to further expand their business while being safely anchored.

• Global tech powerhouse Cegeka becomes the first participation of Gimv Anchor.

• The Board of Directors of Gimv NV approved the transfer by Gimv of 25% plus one share of the newly incorporated company Gimv Anchor Investments BV to WorxInvest NV. This press release is issued in application of article 7:97 BCAC.

Filip Dierckx, Executive Chairman of WorxInvest, and Koen Dejonckheere, CEO of Gimv, comment: “Through the Anchor investment approach, Gimv strengthens its focus on compounding growth and value creation. By doing so, Gimv Anchor is open for companies looking for sizeable long term capital to grow and to anchor them. The significant expansion of Cegeka from an ICT service provider to a leading tech powerhouse at the heart of the digital transformation in Europe serving a wide range of customers makes it a perfect first match to further realise a sustained long-term growth and generate substantial shareholder value within the Anchor investment strategy. Gimv and WorxInvest are therefore delighted to team up around Anchor and to welcome Cegeka as the first Anchor investment.”
