Your.Cloud is further strengthening its position in primary care with the acquisition of Danthas ICT, a specialist IT partner for GP practices, pharmacies and other healthcare organisations. By joining Your.Cloud, Danthas ICT gains access to broader expertise, capacity and innovation power within the Your.Cloud platform, while customers continue to benefit from the trusted team and personal approach they know from Drachten.
In line with Your.Cloud’s decentralised operating model, Danthas ICT will continue to operate under its own name. The team will also remain unchanged and continue working from the office in Drachten.
“The DNA of Danthas is highly valued by both customers and colleagues. In our search for the next step, it was therefore essential that we could retain our identity." - Ane Schaap, Managing Director and Owner of Danthas ICT
Founded in 1994, Danthas ICT has grown into an established ICT partner for the primary care sector. The company supports GP practices, pharmacies and SMEs, and is particularly active in North Holland, Utrecht, Flevoland, Friesland and Groningen.
Its team of more than twenty ICT professionals brings deep knowledge of the healthcare market and broad experience with virtually all commonly used GP information systems. This combination of technical expertise, personal service and proactive support has formed the foundation of Danthas ICT’s growth. Today, this approach is also increasingly valued by a growing group of SME customers.
For customers, the move brings the best of both worlds: the trusted relationship with their regular points of contact remains intact, while Danthas ICT can accelerate its development in areas such as security, cloud, automation and the responsible use of AI.
A new phase of growth for customers and employees
Ane Schaap, Managing Director and Owner of Danthas ICT, is pleased with the next step for Danthas ICT. According to him, joining Your.Cloud creates new opportunities for customers and employees, without losing the identity of Danthas ICT.
“The DNA of Danthas is highly valued by both customers and colleagues. In our search for the next step, it was therefore essential that we could retain our identity,” says Ane Schaap. “At the same time, the market is calling for further professionalisation, for example in security, cloud and AI. Within Your.Cloud, we gain access to knowledge, experience and resources that will enable us to broaden our services, while continuing to work in the personal and practical way our customers are used to.”
Schaap sees many similarities between Danthas ICT and the other MSP businesses within Your.Cloud. “Technology has always been our starting point, but we translate that technology for our customers in a human way. Within Your.Cloud, I see many companies that work in exactly the same spirit. That gives me confidence. We have the space to remain ourselves, while also benefiting from the strength of a larger group.”
Entrepreneurship as the foundation
According to Nils Vermeulen, General Manager of the TICTS segment at Your.Cloud, Danthas ICT is also a strong fit with the way Your.Cloud helps IT companies grow.
“Danthas ICT fits very well within Your.Cloud,” says Vermeulen. “The company combines deep technical knowledge with strong customer relationships in a market where reliability, security and continuity are crucial. Ane and his team have shown that entrepreneurship, customer focus and innovation form the basis for sustainable growth.”
Vermeulen emphasises that Your.Cloud builds on the strength of entrepreneurs.
“We believe companies grow best from their own identity. That is why we give entrepreneurs the freedom to keep building their businesses, supported by the knowledge, collaboration and scale of the group. That is exactly what we will do together with Ane and his team. We are delighted to welcome Danthas ICT to Your.Cloud.”
