Carlsquare advised Fischer Information Technology on its sale to Quanos Group, a portfolio company of Keensight Capital
Headquartered in Radolfzell, Germany, Fischer Information Technology (“Fischer IT”) specializes in software solutions for technical documentation and product information digitization. Since its inception in 1985, Fischer IT has focused on developing robust software to efficiently manage, organize, and distribute technical documentation and product data, playing a key role in shaping the European market for technical documentation software.
Quanos Group, previously known as Schema, is a premier software provider for digital technical documentation, offering solutions such as the XML editing system SCHEMA ST4. Quanos harnesses its technological leadership and AI capabilities to digitize industrial aftersales with a strong customer-centric focus.
This strategic move will create significant value for the combined customer base and greatly enhance the Quanos group’s capabilities and offerings. Moreover, Fischer IT’s well-established technical expertise will strengthen Quanos’ pursuit of continuous innovation. The acquisition was supported by Keensight Capital, one of the leading private equity managers dedicated to pan-European Growth Buyout investments.
“We are thrilled to join the Quanos family, this partnership offers an excellent opportunity to collaboratively pursue our shared vision of redefining the digital product information market. Many thanks to Caspar Stauffenberg, Sebastian Fischer, and the Carlsquare team.
