SIGMA CONNECTIVITY AB ACQUIRES STOCKHOLM BASED WIRELESS SYSTEM INTEGRATION FROM ALLGON AB
-The acquisition of WSI will give Sigma Connectivity a solid foothold in Stockholm and strengthen the unique capabilities and competence offered to existing and new customers. WSI will continue to operate as a separate daughter company with full support of the Sigma Connectivity Group.
"This is a good transaction in many ways. Our subsidiary WSI will get a new strong home and potential to grow. At the same time this path gives Allgon better opportunities for refinement and expansion", says Johan Hårdén, CEO Allgon
WSI and Sigma Connectivity already have a similar company culture and client base, and together they create a unique offer within connectivity, product and service development. Acquiring WSI means that Sigma Connectivity will strengthen their offering to their Stockholm based customers, and at the same time, deliver the right competence locally.
“WSI is a company with a unique wireless competence and proven track record in delivering connected solutions. WSI being based in Kista and Sigma Connectivity in Lund have a very similar culture and both share a common telecom history. We are excited to welcome a group of experienced engineers to our team, and will continue to run WSI as an independent subsidiary to Sigma Connectivity under the name Sigma Connectivity WSI AB.” – Björn Lundqvist, CEO Sigma Connectivity Group
