Forterro acquires ERP company, 123 Insight, as first in UK
Summary
Dean Forbes, CEO of Forterro said: “We are thrilled to bring 123 Insight’s modern product and go-to-market approach into the Forterro group.” Co-founders of 123 Insight, Guy Amoroso and Craig Grant, will support the existing business for the short term and Guy said, “Having built this business over many years, it feels appropriate to hand over the company in such a strong position to a group that can take it to the next level.” Dean concluded: “With this acquisition, Forterro gains a modern, event-driven local or cloud-based ERP/MRP solution. The potential here is extremely exciting, and our investment is a validation of product strategy the 123 Insight team has chosen, as well as the great work they have done executing on it.” This acquisition comes as Forterro expands their threshold in Europe. With the appointment of Dean Forbes and Paul Smolinski, the company have a stronger UK base to add to their already strong European roster which includes Abas Software (Germany); BPSC (Poland); Clip Industrie, Silog and Sylob (France) and more.
