We have advised Ardanis, a leading innovative software solutions provider, on its partnership with Plain Concepts, a global IT professional services group.

Headquartered in Dublin, Ireland, and with a strong presence across the UK, Ardanis is renowned for its expertise in AI, bespoke software development, and digital solutions, with deep expertise in the regulated services sector, particularly in Fintech and Insurtech.

Plain Concepts is a leading technology services company, specialising in solving complex problems for businesses worldwide. This transaction strengthens Plain Concepts’ focus on cutting-edge innovation and artificial intelligence as key drivers of its business growth. The acquisition also brings Ardanis’ deep expertise in the regulated services sector, propelling Plain Concepts to consolidate and expand its vertical capabilities in this space.

This partnership will expand Ardanis’ European footprint, supported by new offices in Spain, Germany, the Netherlands, Romania, and the UK, as well as further afield in the US and the United Arab Emirates, strengthening its international delivery capabilities.

Software Development

The acquisition of Ardanis represents a key strategic step for Plain Concepts. We share their technological vision and their commitment to bespoke digital solutions. Beyond this, there is a strong cultural alignment between our companies, a shared passion for customer success, rigour in delivery, and caring for people as the foundation of our business. This cultural fit is, ultimately, the true engine behind this integration.

Quique Martínez, CEO, Plain Concepts

I am thrilled to announce that Ardanis has joined forces with Plain Concepts. This represents a significant milestone for Ardanis and for our growth ambitions. With Plain Concepts, we are expanding and leveraging our combined technical expertise and strength in AI and technology delivery, amplifying our ability to meet the needs of our ever-growing customer base across Ireland, the UK, and Europe. Importantly, this partnership is a positive step forward not only for our clients, who will now benefit from a broader range of skills, solutions, and expertise, but also for our people. It opens up exciting new opportunities for professional growth, collaboration, and innovation within our teams. We have always succeeded – and will continue to succeed – where others have failed, and by uniting with Plain Concepts, we are building a technology leader positioned to deliver superlative AI and digital solutions across Europe and beyond. I would like to say a particular thank you to the Clearwater team of John Curtin, Daniel Lavelle, and Chris Finnegan for their unwavering support and expert advice and guidance throughout the process.

Ivan Goor, CEO, Ardanis

We are delighted to have advised the shareholders of Ardanis on its partnership with Plain Concepts. Combining with Plain Concepts, Ardanis will accelerate its European expansion plans and significantly strengthen the combined business’s ability to tackle increasingly complex international projects with a deep technical focus. It has been a pleasure working with Ivan, Stefan, Brian, and the wider Ardanis team, and we are excited to see what the business can achieve in its next phase of growth.
