Gamma acquires German cloud company in £165 million deal

Newbury-based technology-based communication services provider Gamma Communications is to buy the German cloud solutions company Starface in a £165 million deal.

The deal will position Gamma as a market leader in the German cloud communication market and, says Gamma, “reshape Germany’s SME communications landscape.”

The firm said its ambition was to disrupt the German market incumbents, drive cloud adoption, and deliver future-proof innovation through its enhanced portfolio.

Andrew Belshaw, CEO of Gamma, said: “This acquisition marks a significant milestone for Gamma as we further strengthen our position in Europe’s cloud communications market.

“By combining Starface’s strong partner ecosystem and technical expertise with Gamma’s established connectivity capabilities, we’re delivering unmatched value to our customers and partners.

“Together, we’re not only strengthening our position in the German market but also shaping the future of business communications for SMEs across Europe.”

Florian Buzin, CEO of Starface added: “We are thrilled to join forces with Gamma, a company that shares our vision of empowering SMEs with cutting-edge communication solutions.

“This partnership builds on Starface’s legacy of innovation and channel excellence while unlocking new opportunities for growth and collaboration.

“Together, we are in an excellent position to lead the next chapter of cloud communications in Germany and beyond.”
