The Corporate team from Actons, led by Simon Dakin, has advised 2bm in the recent acquisition by Keysource, a global specialist in sustainable data centre solutions and strategic advisory services. The acquisition marks a significant milestone for both companies, further solidifying their positions in the ever-evolving data centre industry.
Based in Chilwell, Nottingham, 2bm has been trading for over two decades as a specialist in data centre and critical environment solutions.
Reflecting on the transaction, Mark King, Founder, and Managing Director of 2bm, expressed his gratitude to Actons corporate team for their efforts throughout the process, stating, “Having picked up the Bethpage deal in semi-difficult circumstances, I have to say that Simon Dakin not only embraced the challenge but also showed amazing calm and professionalism throughout the negotiation and legal due diligence processes. Critically for me was how we interacted on a personal level. From the very first meeting, I knew that we would work well together and that I could rely on Simon to find a positive outcome. I will always be grateful to Actons for the quality of the guidance, knowledge, and advice I received.”
Simon Dakin said “It was a pleasure to work, alongside Pete Wood and Phil Eggleshaw from Breeze Corporate Finance, with Mark and his team on this deal. We wish Mark and his team well for their future with Keysource.”
