The specialised technology investor acquires a stake in Speer IT to support the company&#8217;s next phase of growth. The partnership will focus on accelerating international expansion, driving further product innovation and strengthening the organisation, while preserving the strong customer relationships and deep industry expertise that define Speer IT.<br \/>\nFor more than 25 years, Speer IT has developed mission-critical software that enables telecom operators, network owners and contractors to register, manage and optimise their fibre infrastructure. Through solutions such as Cocon Fiber and Cocon The Web, Speer IT provides organisations with visibility and control over complex physical networks. With more than 7 million connected addresses and over 1.5 million kilometres of registered cable, Speer IT holds a leading market position in the Netherlands. Its software is also used by a growing number of organisations across other European countries. The company employs approximately 50 people.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Investing in international growth and product development<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The partnership with Lexar marks an exciting new chapter for Speer IT. By combining capital, strategic expertise and an international network, Speer IT will be well positioned to accelerate its ambitions and further strengthen its position as a specialised software partner to the telecom industry.<br \/>\nSpeer IT will focus on reinforcing its market leadership in the Netherlands while expanding further across Europe. As fibre networks continue to grow in scale and complexity, the demand for reliable network data, efficient asset management and specialised software supporting the entire infrastructure lifecycle continues to increase.<br \/>\nIn addition, Speer IT will invest in the continued development and innovation of its software platform, with a particular focus on functionality, user experience and scalability, ensuring its solutions continue to meet the evolving needs of customers. To support these ambitions, Speer IT will soon strengthen its management team with the appointment of an experienced CTO.<br \/>\n&#8220;Over more than 25 years, we have built a strong position with software that plays a critical role in managing fibre networks. We are proud of what we have achieved and of the long-standing relationships we have developed with our customers. With Lexar Partners, we are bringing on board a partner who will help us realise our international ambitions while continuing to invest in the innovation and development of our software. This will not only support our future growth but also enhance the value we continue to deliver to our existing customers,&#8221; says Kees Jonker, CEO of Speer IT.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A strong foundation for continued growth<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The partnership with Lexar further strengthens Speer IT&#8217;s ability to remain a trusted and innovative software partner for the long term. Speer IT will continue to be led by its existing management team, with Kees Jonker remaining CEO and shareholder. For customers, existing relationships and points of contact will remain unchanged.<br \/>\nLexar Partners sees Speer IT as a highly specialised software company with a strong market position and significant growth potential.<br \/>\n&#8220;Speer IT has built a unique position in the Dutch fibre market through its mission-critical software and deep industry expertise. We see significant opportunities to build on this strong foundation alongside the management team. Leveraging our experience in scaling software businesses internationally and the hands-on support of our dedicated value creation team, we look forward to working closely with Kees and the wider organisation to accelerate this next phase of growth, both organically and through targeted acquisitions. Together, we aim to drive sustainable growth and create lasting value for both existing and future customers,&#8221; says Ruben Fuentes, Investment Director at Lexar Partners.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Speer IT<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Speer IT is the Dutch market leader in fibre network registration and management software, with a growing presence across Europe.
