Successful restart advisory firm VLDV by You Improve
You Improve is lead by former owners Dirk Jan van Lent and Patrick de Vos. Over two years ago they sold the shares to Waterland Private Equity Investments.
Van Lente & De Vos (VLDV) was a leader in the field of advice and support in the area of continuous improvement. Inhouse training of employees was one of the distinguishing features of its approach. The bankruptcy of a training partner and changes in subsidies (especially WVA education) led to uncertainty among investors and lenders. The beginning of the year 2013 the company could therefore no longer meet its payment obligations and went bankrupt.
