With this new partnership, we can provide industry-leading managed cloud services in a hybrid model mobilising the business growth of our customers.”
With this announcement, Sentia Group will gain the exceptional competencies Cohaesio holds in Microsoft cloud technology, allowing for consolidation of its presence in existing markets, as well as broadening its services beyond the current customer base. The partnership will create a unique set of competencies within the managed cloud services space, providing the market with industry-leading quality of managed IT solutions. The acquisition of Cohaesio supports Sentia’s strategic plans of further accelerating the Group’s growth.
Globally, businesses are facing multiple infrastructure challenges as they seek to respond to increasing demands from customers and shareholders, and pressures to drive continued cost efficiencies while at the same time meeting growing regulatory requirements.
