Ricoh Europe has written a cheque for two European VARs as part of its cunning plan to bolster its IT services and transform itself into a “digital services company”.
The outfit has snapped up DataVision and SimplicITy.
The firm works with device vendors including Canon, Epson, Cisco, Microsoft Samsung and Sharp. DataVision was Microsoft’s 2020 Partner of the Year for Surface Hub.
Ricoh claims the acquisition makes it one of Europe’s largest AV and workplace integrators and gives it new skills in modern meeting and workplace solutions and unified communications.
