IT services provider Focus Group has acquired IT reseller Silver Lining to enhance its service portfolio, technical capabilities, and strengthen its market presence on the south coast.
The deal, which is the group's tenth acquisition this financial year, also includes Atmoso, a channel-only provider specialising in managed cloud services and PCI compliance.
Rhys Bailey (pictured), CRO at Focus Group said: “We have a shared commitment to developing a connected future, where businesses can use converged technologies to accelerate growth.
“To support this ambition, we’ll be drawing on the Silver Lining team’s technical capabilities to deliver a compelling portfolio of services across our combined customer base.”
Silver Lining's owners will remain as shareholders, while the team continues operations from their base in Fareham.
Allan Packer, Founder and MD at Silver Lining added: “This collaboration allows us to harness Focus Group’s resources whilst contributing our specialised expertise in cloud services.”
