Home » Company updates » Six Degrees Acquires Capital Support
LONDON, UK – 29th June 2015 – Six Degrees, today announces that it has reached an agreement to acquire Capital Support (“CS”), a cloud, software and security managed services provider with a significant presence in the financial services sector in London. In 2014, CS delivered £14m revenue, up 35% on the previous year, and £2.5m of ebitda.
CS is one of the largest providers of cloud and IT services to the alternative investment market sector in Europe and their clients have over $500bn of assets under management, powered by CS’s hosting services. They have 130 employees who support 170 customers and their services span design, build, deploy and in-life support of end-to-end technology solutions. Key supplier accreditations include deep applications expertise with Microsoft, VMware and Citrix. Capital Support has built a powerful hosting platform with full-suite Microsoft applications, a community cloud and private clouds as well as offering professional services for business continuity, security and consulting projects.
I am delighted to announce our first acquisition for over two years. Capital Support is the clear market leader in their field and they significantly enhance our existing credibility and capability in the financial services market. The addition of CS will also help Six Degrees achieve our goal of delivering software and security managed services that operate further up the value stack. With our existing strong presence in the City – 7 of the world’s top 14 investments banks are Six Degrees customers – we are now a true financial services powerhouse with CS’s hedge fund and private equity client base. I would like to welcome all at CS to the Six Degrees family and I look forward to working with them to grow our business together.
This is an exciting day in the evolution of Capital Support. Being part of Six Degrees will allow us access to converged services like UCaaS that our customers have been clamouring for us to deliver for some time. We will now be able to offer our customers a richer array of services using Six Degrees' in-house technology infrastructure. We have long felt that CS’s IT managed services are highly scalable and can be extended into other industries. We are looking forward to working with the enlarged Six Degrees team to create innovative new customer solutions.
