Prosus NV said Tuesday that it has acquired a majority stake in GoodHabitz BV, a European provider of online training for businesses, for 212 million euros ($256.9 million).

The Amsterdam-listed internet conglomerate said GoodHabitz will continue to be led by its chief executive and founder, Maarten Franken.

Founded in 2011 in the Netherlands, GoodHabitz has expanded into nine further European markets and is one of the few profitable, scale players in education-technology in Europe, Prosus said.
