Since 2020, this has enabled Acora to complete five acquisitions, including the transformational acquisition of cyber security specialist Secrutiny earlier this year; the company has also achieved double-digit organic growth which exceeds 20% in 2022. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Founded in 2006, Acora is now ranked number one MSP in the UK and in the top ten globally. Based in the UK and operating worldwide, it specialises in providing <a href=\"https:\/\/acora.s.nomatter.dev\/our-services\/end-user-support\/\">managed IT services<\/a> to mid-market customers across a range of sectors, with particular expertise in financial, insurance and other professional services. The company is also pioneering a game-changing new approach to managed services through its <a href=\"https:\/\/acora.s.nomatter.dev\/long-live-the-xla\/\">Experience Led Agreement<\/a> (XLA) which places the all-important user experience at the centre of IT provision, reporting and decision-making. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Acora is led by David Rabson (CEO), Gary Page (CFO) and Richard Atkins (Chairman) together with a highly experienced senior leadership team; the company now employs more than 550 technical and other staff at its five UK service operation centres and its London City office. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>This new investment from LDC gives us significant firepower to help accelerate our ambitious growth plans. This investment is all about continuing our existing trajectory over the longer term. I have been talking to LDC for more than a decade and believe they\u2019re the partner we need for the next stage in our journey. We have a strong M&amp;A playbook while driving further innovation and organic growth; we\u2019re very much looking forward to working with Yann Souillard and the LDC team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019d also like to extend my thanks to Palatine Private Equity for their support over the last 30 months.
