Pennylane has tripled its user base, now serving 350,000 businesses and 4,500 accounting firms that rely on its platform daily. The company has also expanded its partner network, now including 60 reseller integrators, enabling rapid growth in the SME segment. This development momentum positions the company to exceed \u20ac100 million in recurring revenue by the end of the year.<br><br>The new investors, CapitalG and Meritech Capital, bring crucial strategic expertise for the company\u2019s future development. CapitalG, a minority shareholder in Odoo and TeamSystems (leaders in accounting and financial management solutions in Italy and pioneers in electronic invoicing in Europe), will leverage its experience to help Pennylane adopt best practices observed in Italy, where the electronic invoicing reform was implemented as early as 2020.
