Perfect takeover: The group from Baden-Württemberg buys the cloud start-up for almost one billion euros.

German software company SAP has made its acquisition of Berlin-based startup Signavio official, following earlier rumors of the deal. Among those to benefit from the sale are existing investors Summit Partners, Apex and Telekom-backed venture capitalist DTCP.

According to Signavio, the parties have agreed not to disclose the purchase price, but Handelsblatt

reports that it is close to one billion euros.

Signavio was founded in 2009 by four students at the Hasso Plattner Institute in Potsdam, named after one of SAP's founders. In 2006 they developed a prototype of their cloud software. It is intended to simplify the planning of business processes in companies and enable up-to-date monitoring, for example, to identify and rectify problems in good time.

SAP and Signavio are currently already working together. SAP uses the so-called Collaboration Hub from Signavio. The start-up describes its own product as a digital meeting place for employees, where content can be created and shared.
