This transaction marks a significant milestone for both Neuways and its new owner, Zenzero, as they look to the future together. Background Neuways, a highly valuable IT solutions provider based in the Midlands, specialises in three core services: managed IT support, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central/ERP implementation, and managed cybersecurity. The business has built strong, long-term relationships with its clients through multi-service, multi-year contracts, which have supported consistent financial performance and steady growth. Selecting an advisor Neuways sought the sector and transaction expertise of Evolution Capital to conduct a strategic review aimed at understanding the full value of the business and exploring an exit strategy for its ultimate shareholders. Evolution Capital’s primary role was to position Neuways in a way that highlighted key opportunities for potential buyers, ensuring the company’s unique strengths and intrinsic value were brought to the forefront before then identifying the optimal acquirer and entering into the transaction stage. Advice, planning, and preparation With a track record of advising over 250 clients and managing deals collectively valued at over £1 billion, Evolution Capital brought industry insight and meticulous attention to detail to the process. After the initial strategic review, the Neuways shareholders decided to continue working with our team to guide them through the entire sale process to a successful outcome and maximum value. The preparation phase involved the creation of an Information Memorandum (IM) and the use of EC Analytics, an advanced data analytics platform that allowed potential buyers to interact with critical business data. This dynamic approach helped streamline the marketing process and ensure that Neuways’ financial performance, particularly its recurring gross profits and adjusted EBITDA, was effectively communicated. The Evolution Capital team worked diligently to prepare the IM and launch the process in August, aiming to complete a transaction ahead of the Autumn budget. The EC transaction team acted quickly and worked efficiently with Neuways and Zenzero to comfortably meet the deadline. Oli Gee, CFO at Zenzero commented: As usual, we really enjoyed working with the EC team on this deal. Their straightforward and efficient approach meant that we were able to get a deal done in a very short time frame and which delivered a great outcome for all parties. Successful outcomes Evolution Capital is proud to have advised the shareholders of Neuways in achieving a successful sale to Zenzero, a rapidly growing and impressive UK-based Managed Service Provider (MSP) this month. Zenzero emerged as an ideal buyer with an excellent strategic fit and alignment of values, as well as being committed to completing the deal quickly, finalising the transaction in under eight weeks. “Naively, I thought I could run the transaction process independently, and not until I was in the thick of it, did I realise the value an advisor would bring. It is obvious now, that we would not be anywhere near where we are now without the guidance of the EC Team, who added so much in terms of expertise and value. Everyone involved has made the transaction enjoyable and I have great faith in the team, and delighted in the work and dedication shown throughout the process.” Martin Roberts, Neuways For more information on EC Ananlytics, our transaction services and financial due diligence support, please click here More than 2 results are available in the PRO version (This notice is only visible to admin users) Latest Posts Acquisition Strategy Evolution Capital’s EC Analytics shortlisted for Due Diligence Technology Award Acquisition Strategy Evolution Capital welcomes Rohit Ramesh as Business Development Manager Acquisition Strategy The Intelligent Deal: An evening of insight in cyber and MSP M&A Categories <lidata-term-id=”90″> Acquired <lidata-term-id=”64″> Acquisition <lidata-term-id=”13″> Acquisition Strategy <lidata-term-id=”10″> Analytic Services <lidata-term-id=”29″> Blog <lidata-term-id=”58″> Business Acquisition <lidata-term-id=”56″> Business Aquired <lidata-term-id=”6″> Business Sale <lidata-term-id=”66″> Business Valuation and Research <lidata-term-id=”11″> Buy-Side <lidata-term-id=”101″> Buy-side M&A advice <lidata-term-id=”65″> Buyside M&A <lidata-term-id=”28″> Case Studies <lidata-term-id=”81″> Disposal <lidata-term-id=”8″> Financial Due Diligence <lidata-term-id=”68″> Fund raising and listing <lidata-term-id=”54″> Fundraising <lidata-term-id=”75″> Fundraising and M&A advice <lidata-term-id=”94″> ICT <lidata-term-id=”53″> IT <lidata-term-id=”62″> IT Managed Services <lidata-term-id=”61″> IT MSP <lidata-term-id=”55″> M&A advice <lidata-term-id=”60″> M&A Managed Buy and Build Programme <lidata-term-id=”105″> Managed Service and Mobile <lidata-term-id=”52″> Managed Services <lidata-term-id=”67″> MBO Management Buyout <lidata-term-id=”83″> Media <lidata-term-id=”59″> Merger <lidata-term-id=”63″> Multiple R&D Tax Claims <lidata-term-id=”12″> Sell-Side <lidata-term-id=”51″> Sell-side M&A Advice <lidata-term-id=”88″> Software <lidata-term-id=”96″> Strategic review & business sale <lidata-term-id=”69″> Strategic Review & partial sale <lidata-term-id=”57″> Technology <lidata-term-id=”7″> Telecoms <lidata-term-id=”98″> Telephony <lidata-term-id=”107″> Transaction Support <lidata-term-id=”95″> Unified Comms <lidata-term-id=”86″> Valuation and fundraising Social Media Our Blog Related Case Studies View all Case Studies, Financial Due Diligence, Transaction Support Neuways Business Sale March 27, 2026 Case Studies, Financial Due Diligence, Transaction Support DSP March 27, 2026 Business Aquired, Case Studies, Financial Due Diligence, Transaction Support Babble March 27, 2026 Business Aquired, Case Studies, Financial Due Diligence, Transaction Support Chess ICT March 27, 2026 Case Studies, Financial Due Diligence, Transaction Support Redline Business Sale March 27, 2026 Request a Confidential Consultation Discover Your Business Value Start with a strategic assessment to understand your maximum potential valuation in the current market.

Datrix
Home Contact Us Home-version 2 Service page About Us Office Location Post template Home Contact Us Home-version 2 Service page About Us Office Location Post template Acquired Acquired, tech 2021 AdEPT, one of the UK’s leading independent providers of managed services for IT, connectivity, and cloud services are a long-standing business partner of ICT M&A advisors Evolution Capital. AdEPT has been highly active in the telecoms market acquiring businesses to complement their expanding portfolio and in 2020 appointed Evolution Capital as advisors for the Group’s next acquisition. The brief was to identify, qualify and introduce the company to suitable enterprises looking to exit through a business sale. AdEPT had an exacting list of selection criteria and wanted to target organisations that would enable considerable advancement in the area of enterprise networks and cyber-security. The Challenge In an industry where there are a plethora of technology companies looking to be acquired the challenge in finding suitable candidates is an exacting and time-consuming process. Evolution Capital’s mission is to use its expertise, robust methodologies and strategic partnerships to ensure clients get the right solution for their requirements. Finding the right organisations that fit the selection criteria was perceived by AdEPT to be a challenge that necessitated expert advice and guidance. High on the list of requirements from an acquisition included technical expertise in specific market places, an established enterprise customer base and significant recurring revenues. Further challenges were introduced by the effects of the global pandemic which reduced the amount of physical meeting time normally associated with such a detailed search and fulfilment programme. Advice, Planning and Preparation Evolution Capital carried out an ‘in-depth review of the market place to identify appropriate acquisition targets to support AdEPT’s stated objectives. After identifying several potential targets and matching them to requirements introductions were initiated. Potential acquisitions needed to fulfil the stated criteria of enhancing AdEPT’s capabilities and increasing its market share in key cloud-centric growth. Datrix was highlighted early in the process as an organisation that could potentially ‘tick all the boxes’. It was identified as a substantial, strategically important acquisition, in line with AdEPT’s strategy. Evolution Capital planned and managed the complete process, including the sale documentation, in conjunction with a strictly adhered to timetable. A Successful Outcome. AdEPT acquired Datrix Limited in April 2021 in a deal valuing the business at £16m which was funded through the Group’s new bank facility. Datrix is an established, award-winning supplier of advanced cloud-based networking, communications, and cybersecurity solutions, headquartered in London. Evolution Capital oversaw the complete process ensuring an optimal outcome to the satisfaction of both parties. Ian Fishwick, Chairman of AdEPT, said, “The Datrix acquisition is the fourteenth transaction that we have completed with the advice and guidance of Evolution Capital. The best recommendation that I can give anyone when considering whether to engage with a professional adviser is that we continue to use Evolution Capital regularly and keep paying for them to deliver their services.” Phil Race, Chief Executive of AdEPT, said, “Datrix is a high-quality business with a well-established customer base, generating strong levels of recurring revenue and a cash generative, capex light, business model. We are delighted that the key members of the Datrix senior management team have chosen to join us. I look forward to working with them over the coming years and, on behalf of the Board, welcome them wholeheartedly to AdEPT.” Nigel Cook, Group MD of Evolution Capital said, “We are delighted to have advised AdEPT Technology Group with this, our fourteenth acquisition together. Each deal is unique and I am most pleased with the speed in which all the teams – Datrix, AdEPT and Evolution Capital –achieved our end of year deadlines and without compromising quality and value for all parties.” Mark Thomas, Managing Director of Datrix, said “We are delighted to become part of the AdEPT Technology Group. From the outset, it was clear that the solution set we take to market is complementary to AdEPT’s, and that the combination of AdEPT and Datrix expertise will bring benefits to both parties, and crucially to our customers. Our joint presence in the NHS will undoubtedly create new opportunities and being part of a larger group will help us capitalise on the growing and substantial market for advanced cloud-centric networks and cybersecurity.” More than 2 results are available in the PRO version (This notice is only visible to admin users) Latest Posts Acquired Datrix Buy-side M&A advice Arrow Case Studies Business Mobiles Categories Acquired Acquisition Analytic Services Business Acquisition Business Aquired Business Sale Business Valuation and Research Buy-Side Buy-side M&A advice Buyside M&A Case Studies Disposal Financial Due Diligence Fund raising and listing Fundraising and M&A advice ICT IT IT Managed Services IT MSP M&A Managed Buy and Build Programme Managed Services MBO Management Buyout Media Merger Multiple R&D Tax Claims Sell-Side Sell-side M&A Advice Software Strategic review & business sale Strategic Review & partial sale Technology Telecoms Telephony Unified Comms Valuation and fundraising Social Media Our Blog Related Case Studies View all Acquired, Case Studies Datrix December 2, 2025 Buy-side M&A advice, Case Studies Arrow December 2, 2025 Acquisition, Case Studies, Managed Services Callagenix December 2, 2025 Case Studies, Fundraising and M&A advice, Telephony Business Mobiles December 2, 2025 Case Studies, Strategic review & business sale ACS Group December 2, 2025 Request a Confidential Consultation Discover Your Business Value Start with a strategic assessment to understand your maximum potential valuation in the current market.

They focus on delivering premium unified communications and have more than 1,000 customers which they help work more efficiently and productively. In 2018 they decided to explore the market to find a buyer to acquire the business. The ChallengeAfter PACE’s founders spent 30 years building the company they decided it was time to investigate the potential of a trade sale of the business. The company was growing successfully and maintaining this momentum required considerable focus, which might be diluted by looking for potential acquirers. The management team considered several different advisors to initiate their disposal programme. Evolution Capital was appointed by PACE Telecom in 2019 to prepare the business for sale, introduce the company to potential acquirers and manage the cycle. Advice Planning and PreparationThe first stage in the disposal process was to implement a strategic review of PACE to begin the detailed preparation of the business for sale. Evolution Capital delivered a multi-disciplined fusion of skills and know-how from its combined team of advisors, analysts and industry experts. This enabled a complete review of the business and made several recommendations to enhance the value of the potential transaction. The application of Evolution’s unique set of methodologies and robust processes during the review highlighted several areas that needed to be refined and finessed to ensure the best outcome for PACE Telecom. Following the review Evolution Capital produced and completed the necessary document for the forthcoming transaction. A Successful OutcomeAfter overseeing the preparation of the business Evolution Capital approached several potential buyers on behalf of their client. All acquirers needed to meet PACE’s criteria including valuation, terms and conditions. Enreach UK were identified as a likely acquirer and one that could deliver a satisfactory outcome for all parties concerned. Evolution Capital oversaw the complete disposal process to a successful conclusion. The acquisition of PACE continued the acquirer’s expansion into the UK market and follows the formal launch of the Enreach UK brand in April 2021. Pace Telecom is an excellent fit for Enreach, having been a customer of their Service Providers brand for several years and specialising in cloud telephony. Jamie Hughes, chief executive of Pace Telecom, said: “I am excited to see Pace Telecom join Enreach at such a pivotal time of growth and innovation for the group after being a partner for many years. “At Pace Telecom, we have almost 30 years’ experience in helping our customers to become more flexible and efficient through our solutions and joining Enreach will only help their businesses to grow even further. We look forward to achieving maximum success as part of Enreach.” Duncan Ward, chief executive of Enreach UK, said: “By adding Pace Telecom to Enreach here in the UK we are able to further improve on the products, services and the overall experience we provide our customers. “Pace Telecom has been a partner of Enreach for Service Providers for several years and, with the team already confident taking our cloud platform to market, we are certain that we can build on this success.” Jamie Hughes concluded: “We made a huge investment in technology in a bid to become the go-to place for knowledge and experience. This paid off for us and with Evolution Capital’s management and guidance we exceeded expectations.” Nigel Cook, Group Managing Director, said: “Jamie (Hughes) has engineered a fantastic result for shareholders, management team and the customers of Pace Telecom, who now will benefit from being part of the leading European UCaaS enterprise, backed with capital from the Pemberton and Waterland partnership. Evolution Capital is pleased to have advised in this outstanding outcome for shareholders.” More than 2 results are available in the PRO version (This notice is only visible to admin users) Latest Posts Acquired Pace Telecom Business Sale Supply Communications Case Studies Spiritel Categories Acquired Acquisition Analytic Services Business Acquisition Business Aquired Business Sale Business Valuation and Research Buy-Side Buyside M&A Case Studies Disposal Financial Due Diligence Fund raising and listing Fundraising and M&A advice IT IT Managed Services IT MSP M&A Managed Buy and Build Programme Managed Services MBO Management Buyout Media Merger Multiple R&D Tax Claims Sell-Side Sell-side M&A Advice Software Technology Telecoms Valuation and fundraising Social Media Our Blog Related Case Studies View all Acquired, Case Studies, Telecoms Pace Telecom December 2, 2025 Acquisition, Case Studies, Managed Services Callagenix December 2, 2025 Acquisition, Case Studies, Managed Services Callagenix December 2, 2025 Acquisition, Case Studies, Managed Services Callagenix December 2, 2025 Acquisition, Case Studies, Managed Services Callagenix December 2, 2025 Request a Confidential Consultation Discover Your Business Value Start with a strategic assessment to understand your maximum potential valuation in the current market.
