Berlin - Neocase Software, an international provider of an HR management platform, is receiving around six million euros in a new round of financing from Entrepreneur Venture, Sofiouest and the management team and long-time shareholder Iris Capital. The funds will be used for services for HR digitization in SMEs.
This investment enables Neocase Software to now target medium-sized companies in addition to large enterprises and to accelerate international growth — including in Germany and Scandinavia.
The SaaS company saw 22 percent growth in 2019 and is targeting more than 20 percent growth in 2020 despite the Covid 19 crisis.
HR Digitization Services for SMEs
Neocase Software has been one of the leading providers in the field of HR service management for almost two decades and has so far primarily addressed the needs of large companies with more than 10,000 employees. With offices and teams in Paris (headquarters), London, Amsterdam and Boston, Neocase Software is now further expanding its offering in the DACH region and Scandinavia. There, the company already serves customers in the automotive, security and financial services industries.
Neocase Software is also expanding its R&D and sales programs to make its services available to mid-sized companies with more than 1,500 employees. In this way, HR services in these companies can be digitized and the workload reduced with the HR Ready© platform. This new development is supported by a strong partner network consisting of software companies such as Workday, Talentsoft, CoreHR and service companies such as CGI, TCS, Sopra Steria, etc.
Neocase Software currently has more than 150 customers worldwide and is active in 180 countries directly and through integrators. Customers include Société Générale, Air France, Cap Gemini, Thales, WorldBank, Peugeot-Opel, Axa, Sandvik, UCB, Penn State University, Harrods, United Health Service, MGM Resorts, and AG2R La Mondiale.
Didier Moscatelli, CEO of Neocase Software: “We support companies worldwide in the digitization of HR employee communications. The digitization of communication in the HR environment is an absolute must, especially in large companies. Our 15 years of experience is the key that enables companies to improve their Employee Experience. The investment gives us the opportunity to now also serve the high demand of mid-sized companies for our SaaS solution and to enter new markets such as the DACH region and Scandinavia. We look forward to this new chapter and the support of our investors such as Entrepreneur Venture, Iris Capital and Sofiouest.”
Pierre-Alexis De Vauplane, Investment Director at Entrepreneur Venture, comments: “We are pleased to provide Neocase Software with the resources necessary to continue to grow. We have been in close contact for several months and are excited about Didier Moscatelli’s dynamism. The Corona crisis has also once again shown the potential of Neocase for companies and their employees.”
