Following the sale of the Vigo-based technology firm Marosa to the Dutch multinational Wolters Kluwer for €112 million, founder Pedro Pestana initiated a significant profit-sharing program for the company’s 120 employees.

Initial reports indicated that Pestana distributed €4 million among the workforce, including recent hires, to recognize their contributions to the company’s development. Subsequent details clarified that the total distribution amounted to approximately €4.5 million. 

While the payout was designed to ensure a minimum sum for every team member—including those with no seniority—the final amounts were distributed based on tenure. A condition of the acquisition was the continued employment of the entire staff and Pestana himself within the new corporate structure.
