Systems architect and ICT integrator Qvest Group has acquired the majority of OnPrem Solution Partners LLC, a consultancy working across the media and entertainment supply chain in the US.
OnPrem’s expertise in business and technology consulting, especially its focus on the digital media supply chain, will complement and extend the Qvest Group’s portfolio and lay the foundation to gain a foothold on the US-American market, according to the company.
Headquartered in Los Angeles, with additional offices in New York and Austin, OnPrem is an end-to-end solution provider that strategises, advises, designs and develops technology solutions, leveraging their expertise in content, customers and data for media and entertainment and consumer products industries. The acquisition brings a highly experienced team of more than 250 consultants to deliver solutions in areas such as digital media supply chain, IP and rights management, data and analytics, customer experience and design to the Qvest Group. OnPrem has built dynamic partnerships with leading technology providers and platforms such as AWS, Salesforce and Microsoft.
“OnPrem strengthens the position of the Qvest Group as a leading partner in digital media, data and cloud management, and considerably enhances our capacity to provide clients with added value, scale and world-class expertise,” said Peter Nöthen, CEO of the Qvest Group. “For Qvest, this is also the steppingstone to the largest market for broadcast and media in the world, which significantly raises our international business in technology consultancy and systems integration. Moreover, joining forces with OnPrem enables us to better and directly support worldwide operating clients and it also generates the ground for the growth of our cloud management platform qibb in the US-American market.”
Frank Leal, partner at OnPrem, agreed: “The leadership at OnPrem is excited and inspired by our new Qvest partnership. With Qvest’s focus on the media industry and quality and their international presence, there was no better fit for us. This transaction creates a worldwide entity that is a partner to CTOs, CIOs and broadcast engineers everywhere. Most importantly, we were able to join a leadership team with a similar philosophy on culture and talent, providing additional opportunities for our team members and creating an organisation that is a home to the best consultants and engineers in the world.”
As part of the acquisition, the Qvest Group acquired 55% of the shares in OnPrem.
