In addition, Ficolo and Tietokeskus have signed a long term frame agreement to provide data center services from Ficolo’s Helsinki and Pori data centers.

The transaction is part of Ficolo’s growth strategy and strengthens the company’s position in Finnish growth regions. Previously Ficolo has acquired data centers in Tampere and Helsinki. The Helsinki data center is currently being expanded to a modern Cloud Delivery Center opening in March 2020.
“With this deal we will have an even stronger market position. Ficolo is the biggest domestic player in the space and we intend to grow further in the future, both organically and through acquisitions”, says Ficolo CEO Seppo Ihalainen.
“We have previously worked with Ficolo’s skilled team and are impressed with their expertise. Safety and our partner’s high quality standards, such as a completed ISO 27001 certificate are important to us. It felt natural to deepen our relationship with Ficolo”, states Tietokeskus CEO Janne Lipiäinen.
There is consolidation happening in the data center space and Ficolo will be an active player also in future transactions. In addition to large data centers, numerous Edge data centers are needed. They ensure that information between the applications used by companies or consumers and the cloud services in the data center is transferred as fast as possible.
Ficolo’s strategic approach and success in M&A has also received global recognition. Ficolo is shortlisted for M&A of the Year at Data Economy Finvest. The winner will be announced at Finvest Global Summit in Zürich on Feb 13, 2020.
