Focus Group has written a cheque for Derby-based communications specialist Evad.
The move is part of Focus’ “ambitious plans for growth and development into new sectors”.
Evad has expertise in contact centres, PCI compliant platforms, professional services organisations and the healthcare sector.
Rhys Bailey, sales director at Focus Group said: “The acquisition of Evad is a great achievement for Focus Group and we’re delighted to welcome them on board. There is a brilliant cultural fit between the two companies that will create great collaborations and opportunities for geographical reach across the Midlands. Evad, as a dynamic and ambitious brand, will bring extensive experience in contact centres, enterprise business solutions and healthcare expertise. Focus Group will provide Evad with the power to diversify its product portfolio with IT, cyber and connectivity services.”
The Cisco, Avaya, BT and Polycom partner was formally owned by Ethos Group and will continue to operate under its current brand name, with CEO Matt Hill and sales director Richard Osborn at the helm.
