Air IT establishes Scottish hub with SoConnect buy

Air IT has acquired Edinburgh-based SoConnect to establish a regional hub in Scotland and further increase its share of the UK SME market.

This is the thirteen deal August Equity-backed Air IT has made since 2020 and its first in Scotland. It will add a client base of 500 companies and a foundation of year-on-year growth.

Air IT CEO James Steventon said: "With a complementary skillset and extensive experience of Microsoft cloud and communication solutions, we will work together and building a strong presence in Scotland."

SoConnect CEO Gordon Sayers added: "This acquisition expands our horizons and enriches our capabilities, opening up exciting opportunities for growth and innovation.”

Mickey Patel, Partner at August Equity, finished: "By securing entrance into Scotland as well as adding further depth to existing capabilities, SoConnect is a great addition to support the continued growth of Air IT, adding significant value to the business."
