Stratacache, the US based digital signage company that bought Scala earlier in the year, has acquired UK based integrator Sys-Teams in a bid to strengthen its global solution and service offering.
The acquisition, led by Stratacache Capital managing partner Dirk Huelsermann, adds a 35-person team of technicians, engineers and installers to the current 750 employees in the Stratacache family. Sys-Teams will now expand outside of its core UK and EU focus, to service projects in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
Huelsermann said the deal was part of an “aggressive expansion strategy” and would complement existing services offered in the Americas and Asia-Pacific regions.
“We’re fully prepared to lead global brands who are seeking to improve their retail customer experience,” he added.
Stratacache describes itself as family of marketing technology companies that provides large-scale networks of interactive, intelligent audience and shopper engagement experiences and analytics. Stratacache Capital has led strategic deal discovery and acquisition globally since its formation in November 2017.
In a written statement Richard Evans and Campbell Newlands, founders of Sys-Teams, said: “We are delighted that after 17 years of digital signage system integration, Sys-Teams is joining the Stratacache family. We feel that this is a great opportunity for growth, evolving to meet the increasing project requirements and retail goals of our clients.”
