Ensono doubles in size and scale to accelerate innovation with clients
Ensono™, a leading hybrid IT services provider, closed on its acquisition of Wipro Limited’s Hosted Data Center Services (DCS) business in the US, Europe, and Singapore. The acquisition of the Indian assets is planned to be completed later in the year. Ensono and its clients will greatly benefit from the more than 900 associates joining the Ensono family.
This is Ensono’s third acquisition in less than three years. By adding Wipro’s Hosted Data Center business, Ensono has nearly doubled in size, expanded its client portfolio, and increased its annual revenue to more than $550 million. Ensono will expand its presence in the U.S. and U.K., establish an operational presence in India, and extend into Germany to provide clients with always on, scalable service.
Ensono and Wipro have entered into a long-term partnership agreement to jointly address the hybrid IT requirements of Wipro’s new and existing enterprise clients. As part of the agreement, Wipro will make a strategic investment of $55 million in Ensono and join the company’s Board of Directors.
