A French leading provider of services to individuals focusing on private tutoring and home cleaning

Domia is a French leading player in the service to individuals sector focusing on private tutoring and home cleaning through two separate brands:

Acadomia is a leading player in the primary, secondary, higher-education and test-prep tutoring markets (at-home, centres and online). At the time of exit, it operated a network of 106 agencies and 20,000 tutors dedicated to help approximately 100,000 students per year meet their academic goals and enhance their educational life. Acadomia is recognised for its unrivalled brand awareness, its customer-satisfaction ratings and the proven academic success of its students.

Shiva is one of the leading and the fastest-growing actors in the home cleaning market. At the time of exit, it managed a network of 280 franchised agencies, which served more than 80,000 clients.

IK Partners acquired Domia from Metric Capital in May 2018, before exiting to Cinven in October 2024.

Our Value Creation Strategy

During our ownership, we worked alongside Management to:

  • Accelerate growth of the private tutoring activity through the development of collective courses, one-to-one and further digitalisation for Acadomia;
  • Develop the network of franchises for Shiva; and
  • Enter new markets group on the wider range of people-care services.
