Act With Care continues its growth as part of Esprit ICT
Act With Care, the Belgian specialist in integrated care technology and access control, is becoming part of Esprit ICT, backed by Avedon. By joining one of the market leaders in care and ICT in the Benelux, Act With Care will be better positioned to respond to the fast-growing market for healthcare automation solutions. The combination strengthens the position of both companies in the Benelux and increases their joint capabilities in personal alarm systems, nurse call systems, telehealth, and access control.
Founded in 2008, Act With Care has quickly grown into a leading player with 15 employees in the field of care technology for home care and care institutions. The organization is characterized by its supplier-independent position in care technology and serves a large part of the Belgian care sector. In addition, Act With Care expanded its access control services to local governments and other relevant clients.
By joining Esprit ICT, Act With Care can draw on the knowledge, expertise, and capabilities of Esprit ICT and thereby support its clients even better in solving complex care technology challenges.
Trusted service, greater growth opportunities
Joining Esprit ICT marks a new growth phase for Act With Care. Act With Care will continue to operate under its own name and under the trusted leadership of its current management and directors. This preserves its local roots and entrepreneurial approach, while clients and employees benefit from the knowledge and scale of a larger organization. According to Luc Brouckaert and Frederik Vandenheede, both owner and CEO of Act With Care, joining Esprit ICT comes at the right time.
Luc: “I am very proud that, with Act With Care, we have now found the right partner in Esprit ICT to begin the next phase of our journey. By working together with our new colleagues, we can develop even better solutions for our clients and offer our employees new opportunities to grow further as part of a larger organization.”
Frederik: “Esprit ICT has a proven track record in the care sector, both in Belgium and in the Netherlands. By combining our expertise and complementary solutions, we can innovate faster and offer our clients an even broader and better integrated portfolio.“
Maarten de Roos, CEO of Esprit ICT, welcomes the expansion in Belgium: “The Act With Care team is a great addition to our activities in Belgian healthcare. They have built a great company with strong business acumen and deep expertise in what truly matters within care institutions and for care professionals. We look forward to an excellent partnership with our new colleagues and have great confidence in a bright shared future.”
Kurt Danneel, General Manager at Esprit ICT in Belgium, sees many opportunities in Act With Care’s complementary product range: “Act With Care’s solutions fit well with the solutions we already offer as Esprit ICT in Belgium. With Act With Care, we broaden our offering for our care clients and can support them even better in addressing the ever-increasing pressure on the care sector.”
