Amsterdam, Eindhoven, 7th of January 2025 – Our portfolio company House of Clouds, the expert in digital acceleration, proudly announces the addition of Little Rocket, a leading Data & AI agency. With this strategic partnership, House of Clouds further expands its service portfolio and takes the next step in providing innovative solutions for its clients.

Little Rocket’s strong expertise in Data & AI, combined with a diverse and balanced client portfolio, are the key reasons for this step. Based in Enschede, Little Rocket has built a solid position in the Eastern tech hub of the Netherlands and is known for its people focused approach and no-nonsense way of working. Through close collaboration, the combination can better respond to the growing demand for advanced Data & AI solutions among companies.

Digital Resilience

House of Clouds is heavily focused on the digital resilience of European companies. Expanding knowledge specifically in the areas of Data & AI – and the supporting technologies required – is therefore one of the key points in the buy-and-build strategy.

Sander Dekker, CEO of House of Clouds, comments: “We are extremely excited about this reinforcement. In terms of culture and professionalism, we are a great fit. We have noticed an exponentially growing demand for Data & AI solutions. With Little Rocket as a partner, we can respond even faster to our clients’ needs. This enables us to better support them in their digital acceleration.”

Nienke Bruggeman, CEO of Little Rocket, is also excited about this significant step and looks forward to the future with confidence: “The collaboration with House of Clouds offers us a unique opportunity to further grow as an organization. Our ambitions align perfectly with those of House of Clouds, and together we can provide even more value to our clients on both sides. The first results of our partnership already demonstrate the strength of our synergy.”

Growth strategy pays off

House of Clouds demonstrates that its growth strategy, supported in part by the buy-and-build plans with Holland Capital, is successful. “Organic growth is important to us, and we are all working successfully toward that,” says Sander Dekker. “The vision of shared entrepreneurship with other (international) market players is also paying off.” Recently, the German company Ambient Digital was added to the group, and with the addition of Little Rocket, House of Clouds begins the year with a team of around 250 digital specialists. This marks a significant step toward further expansion and strengthening its position in the digital market.

Rebranding House of Clouds

With the expansion of its service offerings and the defined growth objectives, a rebranding of the House of Clouds brand is the logical next step. “This month, we are also launching our new brand,” explains Sander Dekker. “With our business proposition focused on sustainable digital acceleration, our current brand no longer fully reflects what we stand for. It is now time to broaden our horizon.”
