Translink Corporate Finance™ teams in Norway and Italy have acted as financial advisors to Visma, the leading European provider of mission-critical software for SMBs, in the acquisition of Tek01 S.r.l., an Italian SaaS company best known for its products FatturaElettronica APP (e-invoicing) and PECImprese (certified email).
Founded in 2007 in Trieste by Sergio Portaluri and Matteo Palamà, Tek01 serves more than 124,000 freelancers, micro-businesses and SMBs, providing easy-to-use solutions that simplify e-invoicing and certified email compliance. In 2025, the company processed over 9.5 million invoices. In addition to its core solutions, it is launching an integrated payment service in 2026, enabling customers to receive and reconcile invoice payments directly within the platform. This will be complemented by a proprietary AI Accountant Assistant, further strengthening Visma’s leadership in AI-powered business software.
Visma is the market leader in Europe and Latin America of cloud and AI business software for accounting, ERP, payroll, HR, and invoicing. With its ecosystem of more than 150 companies, the group served over 2.5 million customers in 2025.
With this acquisition, Tek01 joins Visma’s growing Italian tech network, which already includes SaaS accounting provider Fiscozen (acquired in 2024) and compliance provider Alavie (acquired in 2025), creating a hub of tech companies serving Italy, home to Europe’s largest population of SMBs and self-employed professionals.

This acquisition is further testament to Visma’s ability to identify best-in-class software companies and integrate them into a truly powerful ecosystem. For FatturaElettronica APP, joining Visma represents a transformative opportunity. The company will gain access to world-class technology infrastructure, deep sector expertise, and an extensive international network.”
