Try Dealroom →, has acquired two Belgian IT service providers — WilluxDealroom has a profile for this one. Try Dealroom → and Megabyte InfrastructureDealroom has a profile for this one. Try Dealroom → (MBI). Both companies specialise in managed services and IT infrastructure. Law firm Argo advised AXI and Strada Partners on the deals, covering due diligence, structuring, financing, and documentation.
Why now? The acquisitions are part of AXI's ongoing buy-and-build strategy supported by Strada Partners. They follow earlier deals including OQuila and Teamtel, and mark AXI's first entry into Wallonia — Belgium's French-speaking southern region. Certain founders and key managers of the acquired companies will stay on within the group.
The two deals strengthen AXI's SME division and expand its managed services offering and regional footprint across Belgium.
The signal: AXI's trajectory — from OQuila and Teamtel to Willux and MBI — illustrates a classic PE-backed roll-up playbook in IT services, where Strada Partners is steadily assembling a full-coverage managed services platform across Belgium. With both Willux (early growth stage) and MBI (mature) being folded in, the strategy appears to target providers at different maturity levels, prioritising geographic and capability gaps over a single company profile.
