The spin-off is the result of a strategic partnership between NB Renaissance and Bain Capital, which has the goal to accelerate OverIT’s internationalization and build the global Field Service Management software pioneer through increased investments,” said Piero Galli from NB Renaissance.

Record of scaling technology businesses

When searching for a new CEO to lead OverIT's growth journey and reach the ambitious goals we set, we wanted someone who deeply understood not only the industry OverIT operates in, but also the ambition of our funds and the culture of a global company. Paolo has proven leadership capabilities and a track record of scaling technology businesses; we are pleased to have him join to lead the company in the next phase of growth,” said Giovanni Camera from Bain Capital.

I’m thrilled to join OverIT at such an exciting period,” said Bergamo, “When Bain Capital and NB Renaissance proposed to me the ambitious project to bring OverIT, one of the flagships of Made in Italy technology, to the forefront internationally, I felt I couldn’t miss this great opportunity. I have the ambition to make OverIT an international hub for young technology talent to grow and unleash their potential.
