Advipro was founded by Peter Scheyltjens and his spouse Kristel Patteet. Advipro provides HR outsourcing solutions to the Life Sciences industry. Advipro employs about 80 highly trained specialists to support production in the Life Science industry in the areas of compliance, validation and testing. The company has a particular focus on GxP services (Good Manufacturing/Laboratory/Documentation… Practice). Its capital is now strengthened with the entry of Pentahold, a PE fund financed by Flemish families led by Karel Gielen and Geert Vanderstappen.
Peter Scheyltjens, CEO: ‘In the last few years, we have systematically grown by more than 25% per year. In order to sustain this growth and support new initiatives, we are looking for a partner who can support us, not just financially, but also strategically; we have found that partner in Pentahold.’
Geert Vanderstappen, Pentahold: ‘In Advipro, we have found a fast-growing company that still has great ambitions and many ideas. They have recently opened the first GxP training centre in Belgium, allowing to train people in a real-life clean room environment. That alone opens perspectives on a completely new stream of revenue.’
Karel Gielen, Pentahold: ‘At the same time, the company has taken its first steps on the Dutch market.’”
