Global law firm Clifford Chance has advised Infomedia, a global leader in automotive aftersales technology, on the acquisition of Veact GmbH, a leading European provider of data activation, predictive service marketing, and aftersales customer management solutions in the automotive industry.
The acquisition underscores Infomedia’s strategy to broaden its global footprint through expanding its aftersales ecosystem in Europe. It also allows for Infomedia and Veact to unlock the full value of its data assets, delivering a more connected, end-to-end platform that enables original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and dealer networks to better manage the entire vehicle ownership lifecycle.
Infomedia is an Australia-based leading global provider of DaaS and SaaS solutions that empowers the data-driven automotive ecosystem. Its solutions help OEMs, dealerships and third-party partners manage the vehicle and customer lifecycle. The company was taken private by leading global alternative asset manager TPG in August 2025.
Based in Munich, Veact offers data-driven solutions to some of the world’s leading automotive brands, working with more than 1,000 dealership sites across the EMEA region and partnering with many of the world’s leading OEMs.
The cross-border Clifford Chance team advising Infomedia on this transaction was led by partners Jacob Kahwaji (Corporate/Private Equity, Sydney) and Thomas Krecek (Corporate/M&A, Frankfurt) and further comprised senior associate Friedrich von Bülow, associates Helge Brück and Frederic Hölscher (all Corporate/M&A, Frankfurt), counsel Tobias Born and associate Stephanie Giek (both Tech/Digital, Frankfurt), counsel Claus-Peter Knöller (Tax, Frankfurt), partner Christopher Fischer and associate Anna-Celine Brill (both Employment, Frankfurt) as well as counsel Nicolas Hohn-Hein (IP, Düsseldorf).
