Mergers acquisitions m&a goldfish crackers

Thrive Networks, the Massachusetts-based provider of next-gen managed services, is buying InCare Technologies, an MSP. InCare is known for its work with health care, local governments, education and SMB customers.

Thrive says the acquisition gives it a strong presence in the South since InCare’s headquarters is in Alabama. InCare also has offices in Tennessee and Mississippi.

Furthermore, the purchase enables Thrive to better deliver and support its managed cybersecurity, collaboration and cloud services nationally.

InCare’s managed services include IT support, cybersecurity, networking, total technology outsourced management and more.

“InCare Technologies is one of the best-run MSPs that we’ve had the privilege of working with. They are a perfect partner because of their operational maturity, management, technical acumen and commitment to customer service,” Stephenson said. “Thrive’s ServiceNow platform, sophisticated 24x7x365 security operations center (SOC) practice, and public, private and hybrid cloud solutions will undoubtedly benefit InCare’s loyal clientele and attract future prospects within the region.”
