Amaze plc has acquired digital technology consultancy, MCL Digital, formalising the strong relationship that has been developed over recent years.
MCL Digital, founded by Matt Clarke and Nigel Conde, works in a range of sectors, with a technology leadership position in the education sector. The company has also gained a very strong foothold in the iPhone application development market through iphonecreate.com as well as demonstrating strong credentials and experience with Microsoft SharePoint which are just two areas where Amaze foresees strong growth in the coming year.
Their clients include HP, Smart Technologies (the world’s leading education interactive whiteboard manufacturer) and UniServity (providers of one of the largest virtual learning platforms to UK and international schools).
MCL Digital, currently based in London and Belfast, will be integrated into the Amaze plc brand. Matt and Nigel will form part of the technology leadership team that provides strategic technical direction for the company working with Operations Director, Jonathan Copnell.
Natalie Gross, Managing Partner at Amaze, said: “The acquisition of MCL Digital is a strategic move for Amaze that will further extend our skills into emerging areas including mobile, SharePoint, rich media delivery and touchscreen technologies. Additionally, MCL Digital will support our existing teams to fulfill the growing demand from our clients for forward-thinking technical consulting as more clients turn to digital to support their business infrastructure.”
Matt Clarke, Co-Founder of MCL Digital, said: “MCL Digital has enjoyed considerable success over the last few years at the forefront of technology. We have developed a proven ability to deliver strategic projects in new areas. Moving the business into Amaze will enable us to accelerate this model and provide a richer set of services and strategy for our combined customer base. Over the next few years we will see some interesting developments in our sector as mobile, richer media technologies and cloud based offers really take hold.”
