Aison AS sold to Visolit

Visolit has concluded an agreement to acquire Norwegian IT company Aison, thereby expanding its geographical footprint in the greater Oslo area, whilst at the same time strengthening its cloud solutions, operations services and advisory services offering.

Stratema advised Aison to conduct a strategic review, in response to the increasing demands faced by managed service providers in relation to GDPR, ESG, etc., as well as the current market consolidation. Stratema positioned Aison as a gateway to the Southern Norwegian MSP market and pinpointed Visolit as a potential partner due to its limited presence in the region. Moreover, Aison’s established telecommunications expertise represented a valuable addition to Visolit’s service offerings.

Aison and Visolit complement each other, thereby making the combined entity a strong partner for its customers, whether on hybrid cloud solutions, digital collaboration tools, infrastructure or security. Visolit is a versatile and reputable IT service provider, which will enable Aison to offer a broader range of services to new and existing customers in the region. Moreover, Visolit is a rapidly growing company, whose visionary plans are well aligned with Aison’s ambitions.

“The acquisition is an important part of our expansion strategy and also entails a further strengthening of our position in new geographical regions in the growing Nordic market for hybrid cloud solutions.”

Terje Mjøs, CEO of Visolit.
