Qbees acquired by Main Capital Partners

Main Capital Partners announced the acquisition of qbees, a German provider of mission-critical managed IT services and software solutions for the financial services industry. The transaction was announced in September 2026. Main described the deal as an entry into a highly attractive and fast-growing market characterized by strong structural growth drivers, attractive recurring revenue dynamics and increasing demand for the outsourced operation of regulated and business-critical IT environments.
