In choosing our partners, we prioritised synergy in values, the chemistry between the teams, and their deep understanding of our B2B enterprise software industry.”

Marlé-Zizková said, “While we have always been self-sufficient, this investment will help us address market demand, accelerate the development of our product and business, and strengthen our presence in the international markets while we have a competitive advantage.”

Paul Santos, Managing Partner at Wavemaker Partner, Meiro’s precision “We’re thrilled to partner with them as they enter a new chapter and expand to new markets in Southeast Asia, Europe, as well as the Middle East.
