Gypsilon Software acquires 75% of BMR Software

Gypsilon Software GmbH (“Gypsilon”), a FORUM Family Office holding, has today acquired 75% of the shares of BMR Software & Projekte GmbH (“BMR”) based in Leipzig.

BMR was founded in 2015 and sells a self-developed, cloud-based CRM system with a focus on mobile sales support, campaign management and order management. The company generates sales of € 0.4 million with 4 employees and is growing at a significant double-digit growth rate. The Leipzig location will be retained.

Both sides expect significant synergies from the partnership: BMR gains access to additional resources in sales, support and development. Gypsilon can use comprehensive know-how in the development of web-based software solutions and thus significantly accelerate the migration of its products to the cloud. The shareholders of both partners have known each other personally very well for many years and have already successfully carried out various software projects.

For the customers of both companies, this provides a clear perspective for safeguarding the future of their investment in the software solutions of both companies: the combination creates a stronger company with a broader technology portfolio.
