  • The transaction is backed by Gallant Capital Partners, majority owner of Arctiq, which will continue investing to fuel further growth.
  • Leadership from both companies emphasizes reduced complexity, improved resilience, automated outcomes, and accountability as a single trusted partner.

Strategic Combination Addresses Modern IT Complexity

The merger brings together two established firms with proven reputations for technical excellence, reliable delivery, and trusted client relationships. As enterprises seek to consolidate vendors and gain greater accountability across fragmented technology stacks, the combined Arctiq-Verinext organization positions itself to deliver integrated, intelligence-driven services that span the full lifecycle—from modernization decisions to secure, automated operations.

Paul Kerr, CEO of Arctiq, stated: “This is about building a next-generation technology services organization that reflects how modern environments actually operate. By bringing infrastructure, network, data, security, and automation together, we reduce complexity and deliver more resilient, automated outcomes for customers. Both Arctiq and Verinext have earned strong reputations through consistent delivery, and together we’re scaling that experience with greater reach, depth, and consistency across North America.”

Brian Glahn, CEO at Verinext, added: “Like Verinext, Arctiq has built a strong reputation for technical excellence, delivery at scale, and trusted client relationships. Joining Arctiq accelerates our growth and expands our geographic reach and engineering depth, while preserving the service quality our customers expect. This means our customers gain access to a broader bench of experienced local technical advocates backed by national scale and a single partner that can support comprehensive strategy, delivery, and ongoing operations.”

Enhanced Capabilities and Ecosystem Strength

The unified platform combines Arctiq’s focus on enterprise security, modern infrastructure, and autonomous operations & intelligence with Verinext’s expertise in automation, data protection, infrastructure security, and customer experience improvement. Together, they offer deeper SecOps and managed data center services, expanded managed services capacity, and greater engineering resources to help customers modernize confidently while minimizing risk and cost.

The expanded partner ecosystem provides advanced delivery expertise across leading technologies, enabling clients to standardize on trusted platforms with consistent support and operations across regions.

Growth Backed by Strategic Investment

Gallant Capital Partners, majority owner of Arctiq, will continue to invest capital in the combined business to support ongoing expansion and innovation. Guggenheim Securities served as financial advisor to Verinext, with Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth LLP as legal advisor to Arctiq and McDermott Will & Emery as legal advisor to Verinext.

This combination strengthens the ability of the new organization to serve as a single, accountable partner for complex, distributed environments, helping customers navigate evolving technology demands with greater efficiency and resilience.
