GBTEC serves over 1,200 clients globally, primarily in sectors such as automotive, healthcare, finance, and manufacturing, facilitating digital transformation across Europe and North America. GBTEC generates revenue predominantly through subscription-based models for its software solutions, which allow clients to access a range of products on an ongoing basis. Clients typically enter contracts that incorporate various modules from GBTEC's offerings, such as BIC Process Design and BIC GRC, tailored to their operational needs. Pricing plans vary based on the services selected, enabling businesses to scale usage accordingly.

For the most recent year, the company's EBITDA was EUR 4,543,330. 10 as reported for 2021. Following the acquisition in November 2023, GBTEC Software AG plans to leverage the recent investment to expedite its global expansion and enhance its product portfolio.

The investment will support these initiatives, enabling GBTEC to strengthen its position in the software solutions sector and further address the needs of its growing client base.
