Raynet GmbH (“Raynet”), the global software vendor offering market-leading solutions and IT service provider in the field of Enterprise Software Management based in Paderborn, Germany, is embarking on a growth strategy with PINOVA Capital (“PINOVA”) as an investor by its side.

The deal, which was closed on Monday in Frankfurt, enables Raynet to drive international growth and deliver its high-end solutions and products and its impressive portfolio of services for existing and potential customers to the market with accelerated speed.
As an innovative industry leader in Technology Asset Inventory, Software Packaging and Unified Endpoint Management, this partnership marks the beginning of a new era for Raynet. An era during which an ambitious growth strategy will now be consistently implemented after reaching a solid market position by the substantiated development of best-of-breed products and their placement on the market.
“Together with PINOVA, our future-oriented solutions will not only change the market, but absolutely revolutionize it. We aim to take advantage of the lead which we have gained over other competitors in this field, particularly in the area of Technology Asset Inventory and Software Packaging, and to establish our technology as a global standard for all enterprise customers and service providers,” said Ragip Aydin, founder and Managing Director of Raynet.
Alongside the product development, the strategic alignment also focuses on internationalization and global expansion. In addition to the expansion within the European market, Raynet will concentrate on the company’s facilities in Tokyo (Japan) and Istanbul (Turkey) and will also expand its presence in the USA with the active support of PINOVA.
“Since its foundation, Ragip Aydin has developed his company Raynet into the technology leader in the Application Lifecycle Management area and has brought it on a sustainable growth path. Together with Ragip Aydin and his team, we want to continue this growth and further develop Raynet as a global software vendor and managed service provider, with a particular focus on Technology Asset Inventory and Software Packaging,” added Joern Pelzer, Partner at PINOVA Capital.
