Digital solutions provider Storm Technology has been bought by Littlefish, a managed IT and cyber security services provider.
Founded in 1995 to help Irish organisations on their digital transformation journey, Storm Technology has established itself as one of the main Microsoft business technology consultancies in Ireland.
It has a workforce of 140.
Since it was established in Nottingham in 2003, Littlefish has become an award-winning managed IT and cyber security services provider and has grown its team to nearly 650 people.
Storm Technology said the deal will further strengthen its service portfolio for both new and existing clients in Ireland, and will facilitate future growth, enabling the delivery of its business solutions to the UK market.
The deal will also allow Littlefish to address the growing demand for business focused Microsoft solutions and expand its customer base in Ireland.
Karl Flannery, CEO of Storm Technology, said that joining forces with Littlefish marks an exciting step in the company's business and client journey.
He said it will support its growth ambition and will facilitate entry to the UK market, while reaffirming its commitment to the delivery of maximum client impact with the expansion of its existing capabilities.
"Our team and clients have been an integral part of our journey, and it was important to us that any partnership would build upon the values that have underpinned operations since we first opened in 1995, including unrivalled customer experience and operational excellence. We are confident that we have found that partner in Littlefish," he added.
Steve Robinson, CEO of Littlefish, said today's acquisition marks the next part of the company's success story, expanding its presence and footprint with a like-minded organisation and services that will materially enhance its Microsoft business solution capabilities.
"As well as a shared passion for delivering service excellence and genuine business value for customers through tailored solutions, Storm Technology shares our people-centric, expertise-led approach," he added.
