Danish software company Netop A/S, parent company of Chicago-based Netop Tech, has acquired U.S. and Switzerland-based software company GenevaLogic. With the acquisition, Netop has consolidated its position as the world's leading provider of classroom management software.
“By combining the classroom management software products from GenevaLogic with the products of Netop, we are extending our commitment to being the worldwide leader in innovative software to support teaching and learning,” says Kurt Bager, CEO for Netop A/S. “Netop will be the market leader, providing educators and students with the benefits of more than 20 years of international, educational software expertise.”
GenevaLogic is a privately held company, with its Vision classroom management software used in more than 50,000 classrooms worldwide. The Vision software empowers teachers and trainers to guide and supervise student computer activity from the instructor’s computer screen.
The merger of Netop and GenevaLogic will make more development resources available for enhancing the complete portfolio of education and classroom management software offerings, the companies said in a statement today.
“This new partnership is the perfect fit for GenevaLogic. By combining our efforts we can continue with even more momentum delivering best of breed education software solutions to our customers,” said Peter Schuepbach, GenevaLogic’s Chairman of the board. “Together with Netop’s other desktop management and security products, the total portfolio of solutions and products will be unlike that of any other education software vendor in the market space,”
