ITGL, a digital transformation provider and Cisco Gold Partner, has been acquired by Conscia, a European provider of mission-critical IT infrastructure within networking, cybersecurity and cloud.

The move will see ITGL clients benefit from bolstered cybersecurity solutions and enhanced managed service offerings to support their increasingly complex network and cloud infrastructures.

For Conscia, the announcement spearheads the company’s entry into the UK and Ireland.

Headquartered in Denmark, Conscia - also a Cisco Gold Partner - employs over 1,020 people across six countries serving more than 1,000 customers. These include five out of the six top Nordic banks and three out of every four hospitals in the Netherlands.

With sites in Portsmouth and Oxford, ITGL’s 70-strong team provides extensive expertise in collaboration, networking and cybersecurity across the UK and Ireland. The company’s strong presence in the public sector - combined with expertise in the finance, law and retail industries - complements Conscia’s focus on supporting clients with complex network, data center, cloud, IoT and mobility needs.

Neil Pemberton, CEO, ITGL says, “The shared culture of technical excellence and commitment to long-term client relationships between both organisations makes this relationship a natural fit. By tapping into Conscia’s international network and by leveraging its size and market position, we can deliver extra value while continually expanding and developing the business. Conscia has a strong track record for incorporating new companies and we are excited about what this will mean for ITGL as well as new and existing clients.”

Operating as ‘ITGL, part of Conscia’, the ITGL collaboration marks Conscia’s 17th acquisition in seven geographic markets over 10 years.

Erik Bertman, CEO, Conscia adds, “The UK has a strong and expansive technology ecosystem and is one of the largest markets in Europe. Through ITGL’s forward-thinking technical know-how and industry experience, we will be well-placed to contribute to the region’s continued IT infrastructure growth and digital transformation. This is a significant milestone for Conscia and we’re looking forward to the opportunities that lie ahead for all parties.”

Oliver Tuszik, President EMEA, Cisco adds, "Conscia and ITGL are already success stories in their own right. By uniting their strengths, these two Gold Partners are poised to deliver an unparalleled value proposition to Cisco customers. We eagerly anticipate the synergies and innovations that will emerge from this collaboration, propelling all involved toward even greater achievements."
