Frank­furt a.M. — McDer­mott Will & Emery advi­sed soft­ware inves­tor Main Capi­tal Part­ners on the acqui­si­tion of Form-Solu­ti­ons GmbH by mach­gruppe. The mach­gruppe was formed in 2021 through the merger of MACH AG with DATA-PLAN Compu­ter Consul­ting GmbH. MACH AG, an e‑government soft­ware and consul­ting company based in Lübeck, has been one of Main Capital’s port­fo­lio compa­nies since 2020.

Form-Solu­ti­ons GmbH, based in Karls­ruhe, Germany, has been helping German govern­ment agen­cies digi­tize their appli­ca­tion proces­ses for more than 20 years.

Main Capi­tal Part­ners is a leading soft­ware inves­tor in Bene­lux, DACH and Scan­di­na­via with over €2.2 billion in assets under manage­ment (as of Octo­ber 2021). Main has inves­ted in more than 120 soft­ware compa­nies to date.

The McDer­mott team led by part­ner Norman Wasse is parti­cu­larly expe­ri­en­ced with soft­ware and tech tran­sac­tions and had alre­ady advi­sed Main Capi­tal on both the acqui­si­tion of MACH AG and its acqui­si­tion of DATA-PLAN Compu­ter Consul­ting GmbH.

The McDer­mott team led by part­ner Dustin Schwerdt­fe­ger advi­sed Main Capi­tal in paral­lel in connec­tion with the acqui­si­tion financing.
