Fusion5 In Serious Growth Mode
Fusion5 has announced a partnership with Waterman Private Capital to support the business applications company’s growth objectives in New Zealand and Australia. Waterman’s investment will see them acquire a 55% shareholding in Fusion5.
"As a major shareholder in Fusion5, Waterman shares our enthusiasm for transforming our business into a significant provider of new initiatives, rich expertise, consultancy, and game-changing innovation," says Rebecca Tohill, Fusion5 Chief Executive New Zealand/Australia.
"Waterman’s investment in Fusion5 strengthens our position in the market, and enables us to grow more quickly, take advantage of high growth opportunities, and provide an even more comprehensive range of solutions and services to our customers."
To date, Fusion5 has successfully expanded its staff numbers, capabilities and solution portfolio through an ongoing acquisition strategy. The recent addition of Mindfull, a leading business intelligence consultancy, into the fold raised Fusion5’s revenue to $100m, and its headcount to 470 staff across nine offices.
"With Waterman on board," says Tohill, "Fusion5 will continue to grow both organically and through acquisition. The market is presenting many opportunities across all our vendor partnerships and we are excited to take advantage of these."
