Digicorp Inc., a Brookfield-based IT, cybersecurity, telephony and structured cabling provider serving Wisconsin and northern Illinois, has been acquired by an Eau Claire company that provides IT services and infrastructure and operates a fiber-optic network and data centers in the upper Midwest.
WIN Technology, which also has an office in Des Moines, Iowa, said Monday that it closed July 1 on its acquisition of Digicorp in an expansion of its IT services business. Terms of the transaction between the two privately held companies were not disclosed.
WIN Technology acquired the business from majority shareholder George Fahr, who is president of Digicorp. In a press release, Fahr said WIN shares the same sense of urgency that made Digicorp a success over the years.
"Our shared values – of honoring our commitments and doing what is right for our customers – will accelerate our success as both teams unite in serving our combined customer base and marketplace," Fahr said in the release.
WIN said the addition of Digicorp's products and services expand and complement WIN Technology's existing IT services offerings with the addition of video surveillance, advanced telephony and structured cabling. It also bolsters the company's footprint across the upper Midwest, enhancing engineering services capacity particularly in Wisconsin and northern Illinois.
"Our combined company will bring extensive digital infrastructure expertise to healthcare, manufacturing, financial services, government, education, agriculture, and many business services enterprises," WIN Technology CEO Scott Hoffmann said in the press release.
Founded in 1997, WIN Technology said it operates a 20,000-mile fiber network and a network of data centers to provide critical IT services and connectivity solutions to customers in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska and Michigan.
