With this, Van Spaendonck has acquired a leading online platform for SMEs and the expertise of an online media company.

Ronald de Snoo, Business Owner of MKBServicedesk.nl: "The combination of the activities creates a strong collective with which we can make a real impact in the SME market.
Thanks to the acquisition, Van Spaendonck gives MKBServicedesk.nl the certainty that it will continue to offer entrepreneurs relevant content in the long term. In addition to MKBServicedesk.nl, Van Spaendonck will also acquire the community platform Big Dash and online marketing agency Agency No9 from Dutch Network Group. "The sale to Van Spaendonck not only ensures continuity but also guarantees an entrepreneurial spirit," says Willem Overbosch, founder of Dutch Network Group.
Knowledge partner MKB-Nederland will continue to link its name to MKBServicedesk.nl.

In combination with the network that we have built up over the past 100 years within the SME sector, MKBServicedesk.nl enables us to provide entrepreneurs faster and better with knowledge, inspiration and tools", says Jeroen de Heer, chairman of the board of Van Spaendonck.
