Panda Security,
product offering
Panda Security
is a leading provider of cloud-based security
solutions with products available in more than 23 languages and
millions of users located around the world.
Panda has been transformed from a local operator into a
multinational company by repositioning its product offering
towards a more focused customer base and through an
improved geographical presence. The management has been
focusing on repositioning the company as a multinational
IT cloud security services provider, by leveraging its strong
proprietary product portfolio and acquiring franchisees to
further control the end client. The company is focusing on the
expansion of cloud offering for corporate buildings based on
the successful cloud product that exists today and on the
launch of the next generation of innovative products (white
listing/big data/behavior analysis).
Transport Sanitari de Catalunya – TSC,
with almost 850
ambulances, is the leading provider of outsourced emergency
transportation services in Spain and one of the largest in Europe.
TSC operates a non-cyclical business with 90% of the market
already structured as medium-long term concessions (2 to 8
years). After having invested at the end of 2010, Investindustrial
is supporting the company in developing a national and
international strategy for consolidating the fragmented
outsourced emergency services sector, and in diversifying
revenue streams by providing additional emergency services,
which are expected to harness growth. In recent months add-on
acquisitions have been completed in the UK, Canary Islands and
Balearic Islands.
SNAI
is the third largest player in the Italian gaming sector
and the market leader in the horse racing and sport betting
segments. The company has the largest network in Italy with
more than 600 shops and owns the rights for 1,900 betting
corners as well as the concession to operate more than 5,000
video lottery terminals. The gaming industry has high barriers to
entry arising from its concession nature and thus provides good
revenue visibility. SNAI is now well positioned to capture value
from the introduction of new games.
