Synechron doubles Australian presence through dual acquisitions
Global digital transformation consultancy Synechron continues its march on Australian soil, doubling its local presence on the back of dual acquisitions Chamonix IT and Exposé.
The sister consultancies are based out of Adelaide, respectively focused on full service digital solutions and data science, engineering and AI, and together add around 200 professionals to Synechron’s Australian headcount.
The latest acquisitions follow hot on the heels of Melbourne-based cloud & data specialist iGreenData, completed last month, while the financial services-focused consultancy kicked off the year by opening a new office in Sydney.
“Chamonix IT and Exposé will enrich our presence in Australia, bringing fresh expertise and capabilities that complement our ongoing commitment in the region,” stated Synechron co-founder and CEO Faisal Husain. “This move will enhance our service offerings and drive significant value, strengthening our strategy of continuous innovation and client-focused solutions.”
Chamonix was established and is led by former Kloud Solutions (now a part of Telstra Purple) SA state director Scott Grigg in 2010, alongside Kloud co-founder Geoff Rohrsheim via his tech incubator Hatch Creations, with Exposé launched six years later together with CEO Kelly Drewett. Hatch stable-mates include Cevo and Arinco, which now sit under Quadrant’s Connetico banner.
The original business (pronounced sham-oh-nee), offers a range of provisions across tech advisory, cloud & infrastructure, app innovation, security and managed services, covering clients in the government, defence, healthcare, energy, utilities, education, retail and finance sectors among others, while Exposé was created with a sharper focus on data analytics and AI.
“Joining forces with Synechron is a significant milestone for us. Our shared dedication to excellence and innovation means we’re exceptionally positioned to offer transformative digital solutions that are second to none,” Grigg said, with Drewett adding; “It accelerates our ability to innovate and empowers our employees to take on even more complex challenges on behalf of our clients.”
