What Studibo does

Studibo is a Belgium-headquartered group of multidisciplinary engineering and consulting firms serving the built environment, founded in 2023 and headquartered in Merelbeke-Melle (Ghent area). The group operates through approximately 35–40 locally-rooted subsidiary labels that retain their own brands and client relationships while sharing back-office and cross-disciplinary resources under the Studibo umbrella. Core services span structural stability studies, technical building systems (HVAC, electrical, plumbing, fire safety), BIM coordination, energy performance reporting and certification (EPB, EPC, BREEAM, GRO), acoustics, safety coordination, land surveying, soil and geotechnical investigation, water management, environmental permitting, and life-cycle analysis.

The underlying technology is conventional: Studibo uses standard industry tools (BIM platforms, structural and energy calculation software, 3D modeling) rather than a proprietary technology platform. Revenue is generated through professional services on a project-based, quote-driven model across four primary customer segments — construction and real estate developers (primary), public authorities and institutions, housing associations and property managers (concentrated in the Netherlands), and insurance companies (claims expertise). Distribution is sales-led and field-based: clients engage directly with the relevant label, with the corporate website acting as the central discovery and quote-request channel available in Dutch, French, English, and German.

Ownership sits with IceLake Capital following a February 2025 majority-stake acquisition that funds the ongoing acquisition-led growth strategy. Geographic coverage spans Flanders, Wallonia, and Brussels in Belgium, plus the Netherlands, Luxembourg, France (Nouvelle-Aquitaine), Germany, and Scandinavia, with 600+ experts cited across the network.

Direct peers

• Sweco AB: Stockholm-listed multidisciplinary engineering consulting group that has executed a multi-decade roll-up across the Nordics, Benelux, Germany, and CEE. Most comparable to Studibo on build-vs-buy platform strategy in building engineering and sustainability, though far larger and publicly traded.
• Royal HaskoningDHV: Dutch-headquartered engineering consultancy combining buildings, infrastructure, and sustainability advisory. Direct overlap with Studibo on integrated engineering for sustainable buildings, MEP, BIM, and energy-performance services.
• Ramboll Group: Danish foundation-owned engineering consultancy with significant Nordic and Benelux presence. Overlaps with Studibo on building engineering, sustainability certifications, and acoustics/environmental consulting across the same geographies.
• Drees & Sommer: Stuttgart-based engineering consultancy focused on real estate and sustainable building projects across Germany and beyond. Closely comparable to Studibo on building-focused engineering, energy certification, and project advisory for sustainable construction.
• Arcadis NV: Amsterdam-listed global design and engineering consultancy with strong sustainability, buildings, and ESG advisory practices, plus a hub in Belgium. Direct overlap with Studibo on building engineering, BREEAM/sustainability, and Benelux-centric delivery.
• Antea Group: Dutch engineering and consulting firm combining environment, infrastructure, and building services with strong Benelux roots. Closely comparable to Studibo on integrated engineering + environmental consulting for public and private construction clients.
• COWI A/S: Danish engineering consultancy active across buildings, infrastructure, and sustainability in Northern Europe. Comparable to Studibo's Scandinavian label (Solvexis) and to its broader multidisciplinary engineering model.

Broad incumbents

• WSP Global: Global engineering professional services firm with major European presence (including via the Wood E&I and Golder acquisitions). Broader and more infrastructure-heavy than Studibo, but offers the same building engineering and sustainability advisory services in overlapping geographies.
• Bureau Veritas: Global testing, inspection, and certification (TIC) major with a building and infrastructure vertical covering EPB/EPC, BREEAM-adjacent assurance, and compliance. Adjacent to Studibo's certification-heavy service mix but operates at much larger scale across more verticals.

Regional players

• Witteveen+Bos: Dutch engineering consultancy primarily active in the Netherlands with focus on water, infrastructure, and built-environment projects. Comparable in Benelux delivery model and engineering discipline mix, though less building-certification oriented than Studibo.
