Knowledge Institute for Mediation & ADR Training

This is a growing and increasingly profitable Dutch training and knowledge institute in the mediation and ADR market, with a long history. The company has three complementary pillars:

• Accredited basic and specialized training programs;
• In-house and customized training courses;
• Mediation for business and public disputes.

The scalable model consists of a small, permanent core office staff and a flexible network of experienced experts from a variety of fields. The company is self-managing and operates effectively independently of its current owner.

Market and Target Audience

• Growth Market: The Dutch ADR market is growing, driven by government policy and new legislation.
• A fragmented playing field: the market has a limited number of accredited training providers.
• Target audience: professionals (with associate’s or bachelor’s degrees), organizations, and public agencies.

Position
The company occupies a distinctive niche between large training providers and small specialized firms.

Key figures

• Revenue: 2025 approximately €1.2–1.3 million; 2026 (forecast) approximately €1.4 million; 2027 (forecast) approximately €1.6–1.7 million.
• EBITDA: 2025 approximately €180,000 (more than double the 2024 figure); 2026 (forecast): approximately €210,000; 2027 (forecast): approximately €310,000.

Revenue and profitability are growing. The market for mediation and its acceptance continue to expand, particularly in the business sector. Once the break-even point is surpassed, profitability increases significantly, providing operational leverage.

Client Base
The client base is broadly diversified (the top 10 clients account for approximately one-quarter of revenue), with high client satisfaction.

Transaction
The subject of the sale is 100% of the shares as of January 1, 2027. After that date, the seller will continue to provide training and mediation services, if desired, and can offer strategic advice as needed.
