NUSO, an omnichannel provider of cloud communications and collaboration solutions, recently announced a partnership with McCarthy Capital to recapitalize. The selling investors included Advantage Capital, James Goebel, and Gentsch Capital.

NUSO delivers cloud native business communication services including telephony, collaboration, contact center, messaging, compliance, and critical communication platforms throughout North America, Europe, and the United Kingdom.

From its beginnings as the Voice-over-IP-Service division of Sotel Systems, LLC in 2008, NUSO experienced double-digit growth and ultimately spun out as an independent cloud communications platform in 2019 with the help of an investment from leading impact investor Advantage Capital. Since its spin out, the company has grown revenues more than six-fold and expanded operations to the United Kingdom and Italy.

Jim Goebel, Chairman of Sotel Systems and former Chairman of NUSO said: “On behalf of the shareholders and directors, I want to recognize the vision and customer-centric focus of the management and employees of NUSO that created a global, award-winning communications platform. I am pleased McCarthy Capital chose to partner with NUSO’s management and employees to continue that growth and innovation.”

The establishment and growth of NUSO – and its new partnership with McCarthy Capital – was supported and facilitated by long-time investors committed to the company and its vision.

“We are thankful for the support of the investment group that enabled NUSO to transition to this next chapter,” said Matt Siemens, NUSO CEO. “Looking back to when just over 30 of us spun out in 2019 to become an independent company, we exceeded our own expectations of revenue growth while nearly tripling the number of jobs created.”

Advantage Capital initially invested in the company in 2019 and has been instrumental in its strategy and success – sharing business expansion and job growth aspirations.

“NUSO is an amazing business story, and we are pleased to have played our part,” said Louis Dubuque, Managing Director, Advantage Capital. “We always aim to invest in growth-ready businesses run by ambitious entrepreneurs with talented teams and a sound strategy.

Senet brings nearly 10 years of LoRaWAN technology development, a portfolio of public and private network offerings, integrations with several terrestrial and satellite networks, and a synergy with Netmore Group across large-scale commercial markets, including utilities, energy, enterprise, and asset tracking/logistics.

Adding to its growing footprint throughout 11 European markets, Netmore is now positioned to deliver best-of-breed connectivity services, network infrastructure management, network and device monitoring and management, radio planning, maintenance, and customer support globally.

The combined company will start with over one million connected devices under direct management and a large, contracted backlog, including one of the largest global installed bases of water utility AMI networks and contracted smart meters. Additionally, Senet has momentum in the building monitoring, track and trace, natural gas safety, and operator enablement markets, which complement existing Netmore market penetration and offer new opportunities for significant multi-protocol end-device connection growth across geographies.

Senet will continue operations as Senet, a Netmore Company, from its headquarters location in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, ensuring the continuity of regional sales, service delivery, and customer success. This structure also recognizes the strong brand Senet has created as a prominent provider of LoRaWAN network services, while establishing a better, stronger Netmore Group with the resources and strategic focus to grow a global business.

This acquisition brings together highly complementary teams, technology, and operations that position Netmore to create even more value for our customers, employees, and shareholders as we become the driving force behind the next stage of market growth,” says Ove Anebygd, CEO Netmore Group AB

“A fragmented IoT connectivity market is beginning to consolidate. Netmore, Senet investors, and leadership view the timing of this strategic acquisition as an opportunity to establish a dominant market leadership position. Now, more than ever, we are positioned to engage and execute with technology leaders, solution providers, integrators, and channel partners to drive innovation into the market and accelerate the adoption of LoRaWAN technology across markets. Our long-term commitment remains firmly rooted in delivering innovative products and exceeding customer expectations with best-in-class customer support, while building and maintaining strong relationships with the customers, partners, and suppliers across the markets we serve,” says Bruce Chatterley, CEO, Senet, Inc.

Purpose-Driven Investors

With backing from financially strong and long-term purpose-driven investors Polar Structure AB, a major shareholder in Netmore, and Fisk Ventures, a leading investor in Senet, the organization is poised to capitalize on new opportunities and drive growth for years to come.

“As majority owner and green transition partner, we are proud of our key investment in Netmore. Through our continued investments, we are determined to develop the leading IoT network for critical assets in society to become sustainable at scale. A sustainable asset is a connected asset. Our long-term ownership structure accelerates modern infrastructure development, enabling resource efficiency across sectors.

“We are excited about the growth of digital transformation driven by the promise of IoT. Following recent growth in demand from the energy, utility, and enterprise sectors, the timing of this venture is strategically aligned with the next phase of the market’s evolution and creates new opportunities for customers around the world.

11:11 Systems (“11:11”), a managed infrastructure solutions provider, today announced the acquisition of Static1, a leader in managed network and IT infrastructure development and services. Driving increased productivity, efficiency, and security for its customers, Static1 designs, builds, runs, and optimizes IT infrastructure.

The enterprise network infrastructure market is valued at $56B as of 2021, and is expected to grow significantly over the next five years. The shifting dynamics of remote work and the increased need for bandwidth and technology to enable the migration to wireless are major factors driving the growth of the connectivity market. IT leaders must ensure applications and data are connected, anywhere, anytime, but most businesses do not have the internal resources to manage those new complex infrastructure requirements.

“Feedback from customers has shown that there is a dearth of offerings that combine cloud, connectivity and security in one platform,” said Brett Diamond, CEO, 11:11 Systems. “We are focused on providing the platform for these three core pillars while ensuring that our customers’ apps and data are always running, accessible and protected. Static1 is a natural addition to our portfolio particularly because of the team’s significant depth in connectivity. With this acquisition, we will strengthen our existing managed services and add entrenched industry expertise and relationships to our portfolio.”

Static1 is a leader in complex industries such as media, entertainment, pharmaceutical, retail, financial services, and not-for-profits. Their services span the gamut from connectivity to security management to monitoring, network, infrastructure, and SD-Wan technology. Through this acquisition, Static1’s team and technology will complement 11:11’s recent acquisitions of Unitas, Cleareon, iland and Green Cloud Defense– each of which hold market leadership positions within the cloud, connectivity, and security spaces.

“11:11 and Static1 share a vision for addressing the most pressing issues that businesses face,” adds Anthony Lobretto, President, and CTO, Static1. “This exciting step forward benefits our customers with continued best-in-class support, greater uptime, reliability, and security, all while reaping the benefits of accessing the full spectrum of purpose-driven solutions 11:11 has to offer.”

11:11 is backed by Tiger Infrastructure Partners, a middle-market private equity firm that invests in growing infrastructure platforms.

Visionary Broadband (“Visionary”, or the “Company”) has received a strategic investment from funds affiliated with GTCR LLC (“GTCR”), a leading private equity firm based in Chicago, Illinois. The transaction will allow Visionary to continue investing in the construction of new fiber broadband networks throughout Wyoming, Colorado, and Montana, and will prepare Visionary for match requirements in upcoming State-led grant programs.

Headquartered in Gillette, Wyoming, Visionary is a pioneering Internet Service Provider (“ISP”) serving residential and business subscribers in the Rocky Mountain region. Founded in 1994, Visionary has grown into one of the largest and most geographically diverse ISPs in the Rocky Mountain region, serving customers through the Company’s hybrid fiber and wireless network. In partnering with GTCR, Visionary Broadband will accelerate its ongoing network expansion in order to provide fiber-to-the-premise (“FTTP”) broadband to rural and underserved communities.

“This investment accelerates our commitment to deliver reliable, state-of-the-art gigabit internet where we live, work and play. We do what we say here at Visionary, and this allows us to do even more for both existing and future Visionary customers,” said Brian Worthen, CEO of Visionary Broadband. “GTCR shares our rural broadband focus, and we are excited to partner with them at this essential time for broadband.”

“The Visionary management team has built an incredible business with deep roots in the communities they serve,” said Stephen Jeschke, Managing Director at GTCR. “We are excited to partner with an experienced and entrepreneurial management team focused on hiring local and bringing multi-gigabit fiber-based internet access to their service areas.”

Visionary is actively constructing FTTP projects in several markets in its existing footprint. The initial builds include the Wyoming communities of Casper, Cheyenne, Gillette, Lander, Laramie, and Lusk, and Marble, Gunnison, and Walden in Colorado. Previously, Visionary completed FTTP projects in Dayton, LaGrange, Ranchester, and Yoder in Wyoming, and in Kremmling, Colorado. The Company is deploying XGS-PON, a passive-optic networking technology capable of ten gigabits per second to every home.

Visionary plans new fiber projects in communities that desire a relationship with a broadband provider, are focused on economic development and are engaged on behalf of their citizens.

Sangoma Technologies Corporation (TSX: STC; Nasdaq: SANG) ("Sangoma" or the “Company”), a trusted leader in delivering cloud-based Communications as a Service solutions for companies of all sizes, today announced it has acquired NetFortris Corporation (“NetFortris”). This acquisition further accelerates Sangoma into the upper echelon of SaaS communications providers and extends our industry leading suite of cloud services with new MSP capabilities, thereby delivering even more ‘one stop shopping’ for our customers and providing larger ‘share of wallet’ for Sangoma.

NetFortris provides UCaaS and cloud-based, fully managed MSP (managed service provider) solutions for businesses of all sizes and across all industries. They have approximately 250 employees and four primary offices in Dallas, Seattle, Los Angeles, and Manila. In addition to NetFortris’ UCaaS offering, their MSP product line delivers all the mission critical communications services that customers need to complement their ‘as a Service’ applications, such as managed network security, managed SD-WAN, managed network access, monitoring, etc. These MSP services are built upon a highly integrated, end-to-end managed network, backed up by an expert 24/7 network engineering team. NetFortris has over 6,000 customers in North America, over 60,000 seats, with very low customer concentration, and generates expected annualized revenue of just over USD $50 million.

“A critical part of our existing strategy, and of our competitive differentiation, involves providing customers with the widest set of cloud communications services in our industry, avoiding the need for them to buy five different services from five different vendors,” said Bill Wignall, President, and CEO of Sangoma. “The acquisition of NetFortris further extends that strategy in such a perfectly natural manner. Not only can customers already get from Sangoma all the ‘aaS’ products they use today, but now they will also be able to obtain all the other cloud-based MSP services they know they need, such as managed network security, managed access, and managed SD-WAN. This truly is ‘one stop shopping’ for our customers, and it taps into that very important new trend that so many of us in the industry see starting to emerge. I am most excited about this acquisition, our eleventh in eleven years, because it demonstrates our innovative, unique, forward-looking vision and it continues to push Sangoma ahead in the market, further differentiating us from the competition.”

The addition of Koopid technology will bring comprehensive omnichannel support, including chat, messaging, self-service, and social media, to Dialpad Contact Center. Koopid will seamlessly integrate with Dialpad Voice Intelligence (Vi™) to optimize CX through easy-to-use digital engagement and empower brands to differentiate with personalized customer service.

“The Age of the Customer has transitioned into The Experience Age where the customer, employee and end user experience is now the great differentiator.” said Craig Walker, CEO, Dialpad. “The legacy on-premises providers, along with the first generation of cloud platforms, curb their customers’ ability to meet the rapidly changing needs of the modern consumer. Koopid digital engagement technology, as well as our recent acquisition of Kare Knowledgeware, will help Dialpad lead this industry from the front with innovative solutions for the complexities of tomorrow.”

With the acquisition of Koopid, Dialpad will offer a superior omnichannel experience enabling companies to improve digital engagement with customers and build brand loyalty. The Koopid CX platform enables brands to deliver a modern, connected, and personalized customer experience within and across all digital channels. Koopid technology simplifies customer-to-company engagement and offers a broad spectrum of channels, empowering the customer to initiate contact through any channel. The infusion of Koopid’s omnichannel technology with Dialpad AI will offer companies a 360-degree view of customer interactions and synchronize conversations across all channels to boost CX by eliminating account detail repetition by the customer.

“Koopid is thrilled to join Dialpad, the fastest-growing and most innovative company in the combined Unified Communications as a Service and Contact Center as a Service space,” said Dr. Venky Krishnaswamy, CEO and co-founder of Koopid. “The contact center software industry is wide open for disruption and will be led by only the most forward-thinking organizations offering complete, cutting-edge solutions. We anticipate a bright future together and look forward to leading CCaaS innovation as part of the Dialpad team.”

“Dialpad is building agile and flexible cloud contact center solutions for the next generation of forward-thinking customer service providers and Koopid is a key piece to enhance our offering,” continued Walker. “The addition of Koopid’s revolutionary technology brings full omnichannel support to Dialpad Contact Center and offers Dialpad customers the most advanced AI-powered cloud solutions in the contact center industry.”

Q Advisors, a global TMT investment bank, acted as financial advisor to Koopid in connection with this transaction.

Sangoma Technologies Corporation (“Sangoma”) (TSXV: STC), a trusted leader in delivering cloud-based Communications-as-a-Service (“CaaS”) solutions, announced that it has completed its previously reported acquisition of all of the shares of StarBlue Inc. (the parent company of Star2Star Communications, LLC, (“Star2Star”)) from Star2Star Holdings, LLC and Blue Face Holdings Limited.

“Customers today are demanding an integrated buying experience for all their communications needs and the combination of Sangoma and Star2Star will satisfy that need with the broadest set of cloud-native CaaS and related solutions in the industry,” said Bill Wignall, President and CEO of Sangoma. “This transaction ensures we can meet any customer’s preference, be it for purely cloud solutions, on-premise deployments, or a hybrid combination, all the way from small businesses to large enterprises. For many years, we have consciously pursued a strategy to transform Sangoma from a product business to one of the communications industry’s leading SaaS companies. This deal is incredibly exciting not only because it will generate scale in a growing, consolidating space, but also because by combining with Star2Star we will have completed our long-term evolution into a leading cloud services company, one with annual revenue approaching $250 million.”

Star2Star, based in Sarasota, Florida, is a privately-held leading provider of full-spectrum, internally developed, cloud-native communications services delivered via a high availability, multi-tenant platform.

“We are thrilled to combine forces with Sangoma because we have so many complementary strengths,” said Norman Worthington, founder and CEO at Star2Star. I’ve come to genuinely appreciate Bill’s vision for our combined companies in how we share a view on how to profitably grow in this exciting market, a viewpoint that’s unique in our industry. Sangoma was the perfect fit for us because they identified and appreciated our talented team, loyal customers and unique go to market approach."

Star2Star has a differentiated channel approach, employing over 650 active partners across multiple types of channels, from resellers and interconnects, to managed services providers and enterprise technology partners to wholesale and white label distributors.

Q Advisors and Acuity Advisors, members of a global TMT investment banking alliance, announced the joint representation of acting as the exclusive financial advisors to Mission Labs Limited (“Mission Labs”), a leading provider of Unified Communications as a Service (“UCaaS”) and Contact Center as a Service Solutions (“CCaaS”) to enterprises and the public sector in the United Kingdom, in connection with its sale to Gamma Communications plc (“Gamma”), a leading U.K. and European Cloud and Communications provider.

Gamma provides robust, innovative, and secure market-leading cloud-based services, including SIP Trunking and Hosted PBX, to enable organizations to communicate, collaborate, and offer a better customer experience. Mission Labs is a UCaaS technology business known for creating technologically advanced solutions and delivering great service to its customers and partners. This acquisition gives Gamma additional capabilities in the rapidly evolving Cloud Communications and CCaaS markets.

“We hired Q Advisors and Acuity Advisors for their deep knowledge of the cloud and managed services sectors, particularly around Contact Center and UCaaS, and their ability to understand the strategy of all the global players in the space,” commented Damian Hansen, CEO and Founder of Mission Labs. “We are excited for our new relationship with Gamma and could not be more pleased with the financial and strategic outcome for Mission Labs, our stakeholders, and employees. It was great working with advisors who listened to our objectives, first and foremost, and were able to secure an industry-leading multiple for our business.”

“We were honored to be chosen by Mission Labs and their investors, and working with them was a great experience leading to an industry-leading multiple in the CCaaS space,” said Michael Quinn, Founding Partner at Q Advisors. “Our first transaction with our new alliance partner, Acuity, was an exciting accomplishment and produced a great result for our mutual client.”

“Together with Q Advisors, we are proud to have supported Mission Labs on their sale to Gamma, with one of the highest valuations achieved in the contact center sector. This transaction in the Telecoms, Cloud, and Managed Services space has firmly established Acuity’s U.S. alliance with Q Advisors,” said Richard Baker, Managing Partner at Acuity Advisors.

Q Advisors, the leading global cloud and managed service investment bank in the sector, has closed more than 160 deals in the U.S. and Europe to date. This transaction marks the team’s 30th cloud transaction in Europe and 3rd opposite Gamma plc.

Ribbon Communications Inc. (Nasdaq: RBBN) and American Virtual Cloud Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: AVCT) today announced that they have completed the previously announced acquisition of Kandy Communications (Kandy) by AVCT.

Kandy complements AVCT's April 2020 acquisition of Stratos Management Systems, Inc. (dba Computex Technology Solutions) by providing a full suite of UCaaS, CCaaS, and CPaaS products to serve the rapidly growing cloud communications market. Customers today demand a highly reliable, secure, and scalable communications platform along with a world class customer experience.

AVCtechnologies offers end-to-end services spanning from managed IT solutions, managed services, and cloud communications, delivered by certified experts to provide exceptional white glove customer experience to business customers, service providers, independent software vendors, and system integrators. AVCtechnologies is now positioned as a premier white label provider of choice for UCaaS, CCaaS and CPaaS.

"We are very pleased to welcome Kandy to the AVCtechnologies family," said Xavier Williams, Chief Executive Officer of AVCtechnologies. Williams added, "Kandy will be our linchpin, enabling us to provide carrier grade, global cloud communications that address the needs of medium and large enterprises. As the velocity of public, hybrid, and private cloud communications continues, we are in a fortunate position to be able to focus on execution while competitors in our space need to concentrate on platform capabilities, global expansion and improved customer experience. Kandy's world class, globally-deployed, carrier grade, white-labeled proprietary communications platform gives AVCtechnologies the ability to solve customer communication needs. Kandy's platform, significant growth trajectory, and global marquee customer and partner base, including AT&T, City of Los Angeles, IBM, and Etisalat (the largest telecom provider in the UAE), accelerates our go to market plans and enables us to expand our award-winning portfolio."

Bruce McClelland, Ribbon's CEO, stated, "We are impressed with the depth of talent and vision of the AVCtechnologies' management team and believe that with the addition of the innovative Kandy team, the company will continue to provide excellent service to channel partners and customers.

365 Data Centers, a leading provider of network-centric colocation and other Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) solutions, announces its acquisition of Atlantic Metro Communications, which provides tailored colocation, network and cloud services to large and mid-size enterprises. While continuing to build 365's presence in the data-intensive northeast corridor, the transaction solidifies 365's position as one of the largest, privately held IaaS providers in the Eastern U.S.

The acquisition adds a data center facility in Herndon, Virginia, along with partner-operated colocation space and available power in northern Virginia and Los Angeles. The transaction delivers 65 additional network points-of-presence (PoPs), particularly in the Boston, New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia and Virginia metro markets and several international locations. The deal also contributes cloud platforms in New York, New Jersey, Virginia, Miami and Los Angeles. 365 is now positioned to serve customers at its 13 redundantly interconnected data centers and five additional partner-operated facilities, and from 86 PoPs and seven cloud platform locations.

"This transaction is a milestone event for both companies," says Bob DeSantis, Chief Executive Officer of 365 Data Centers. "365's acquisition of a highly respected business with a track record of providing customers with high touch, hybrid infrastructure solutions is a tribute to Atlantic Metro's management and employees, who will become part of the 365 team. For 365, this acquisition expands our geographic and infrastructure footprint, complements our existing IaaS offerings, and significantly increases our customer base, revenue, and cash flow - all of which greatly benefits our customers. 365 remains strategically disciplined with a focus on network-centric colocation assets and complementary network and virtual services in edge markets within the northeast quadrant of the United States, Tennessee and Florida."

Atlantic Metro's founders and key leaders will join the 365 executive team, reporting to DeSantis. Stephen Klenert has been named 365's Senior Vice President, Customer Solutions & Implementation; James Cornman becomes 365's Chief Technology Officer; and Steve Oakie joins 365 as Senior Vice President, Sales & Marketing. "The product knowledge and expertise of these industry veterans will be invaluable as we quickly integrate into one, robust 365 brand," comments DeSantis.

"Since 2011, we've built a company that we're very proud of and did it without a lot of capital," says Matthew Lombardi, CEO of Atlantic Metro. "This transaction will enable continued growth through increased investment in infrastructure and managed services. 365 has a talented team of experienced investors, operators, and technologists who share our vision and bring enterprise-scale resources. This combined technology platform provides 365 with an advantage at an exciting time in our industry."

The Atlantic Metro acquisition continues 365's rapid growth trend. Over the last year, the company acquired colocation businesses and facilities in New Jersey and Long Island. Last month, 365 announced that Stonecourt Capital acquired a majority stake in the company and original investors Lumerity Capital and Longboat Advisors reinvested into the new partnership. That transaction provided 365 with substantial financial resources to fund its internal and external growth strategies.

Q Advisors, a global TMT investment banking boutique, acted as exclusive financial advisor to Atlantic Metro. Shipman & Goodwin LLP and Polsinelli PC served as legal counsel to 365, and Ferdinand IP served as legal counsel to Atlantic Metro. Affiliated funds and accounts of Cerberus Business Finance, Everberg Capital, and ORIX Corporation USA's Special Opportunities Group provided financing for the transaction.
