Aticeo advised the Skill & You group (France) for its first investment abroad. Its acquisition of Ilerna Online (Spain) was sealed in early 2019. The objective: to create one of the most consolidated "Ed-Tech" groups in Europe, covering the preparation for competitive examinations, as well as official education and vocational training. Since 2019, Ilerna Online has grown steadily and now employs more than 300 professionals.
Likewise, the Skill & You group has soared to more than 800 professionals in total, including the Ilerna staff. Clearly, this positions them as one of the leading European groups in the education field and a clear leader in remote and digital learning.
The dialogue between, on one hand, Eric and Sonia of Skill & You, respectively President and GM, and on the other hand Jordi and Virginia, co-founders of Ilerna Online, fostered the successful integration of a multinational group of companies.
They are now present in France, Spain, Italy, the UK and Mauritius. In addition, their official degrees and vocational training are available to students who reside in the rest of Europe and the world, with a particular interest from Latin America students.
