SUMMARY

  • Koblenz-based Sdui Group, which offers cloud-based admin software for K-12 schools, has announced new growth funding to enhance its products, better support schools, and move closer to its goal of becoming Europe’s all-in-one digital education platform.

The funding round was led by Bain Capital’s Tech Opportunities fund, along with existing investors HV Capital and HTGF.

“Bain Capital’s approach is unique – they combine strategic vision with real operational support” said Daniel Zacharias, Founder and CEO of Sdui Group. “They’ve taken the time to truly understand our mission and the realities schools face every day. With their support – and the continued backing of HV and HTGF – we’re accelerating our work to build the digital backbone of European schools.”

With a team of about 230 employees across Europe, Sdui’s platform is used by schools, districts, and governments to simplify operations. The goal is to improve the experience for teachers, students, parents, and administrators—freeing up more time for teaching and learning.

“This is a moment of transformation for education in Europe,” said James Stevens a Partner in Bain Capital’s Tech Opportunities business. “Sdui Group is emerging as a trusted and capable partner to help schools navigate that change. Daniel and his team have built a modern, intuitive platform that directly addresses the daily challenges of school administration. We’re excited to support their continued growth and impact across the region.”

As schools across Europe deal with growing complexity, higher digital expectations, and more public support for edtech there’s a strong need for modern, reliable platforms to simplify daily tasks.

Sdui Group aims to meet this demand with its user-friendly design and scalable, secure cloud-based system.

“We’ve been proud to back Daniel and Sdui Group since the early days and are thrilled to continue supporting this next phase of growth,” said Felix Klühr, Partner at HV Capital. “Bain Capital’s experience scaling software companies globally makes them a valuable addition to the partnership.”

The company says it has successfully integrated several regional software providers, expanded its features, and continues to invest in innovation, reliability, and user experience.

Markus Kreßmann, Partner at HTGF: “Sdui is systematically building its position as the No. 1 in the European EdTech market. This substantial round of financing will enable it to continue on this path. We are delighted to be part of this success story. When we invested in the Seed round in 2019 we placed our trust in a Founder who had only recently left school. Today, Sdui has grown to become one of Europe’s leading providers, employing over 230 people. It is a powerful example of what can be achieved when vision, entrepreneurial talent and genuine demand come together.”
