Stryve has announced a majority share acquisition of consulting firm Futuralis. The deal positions the Carlow-based company as a global multi-cloud provider with operations in the US, India, South Africa, Morocco, Poland and the UK.

Established in 2011, Futuralis is headquartered in Maryland and employs more than 35 people with teams in Georgia, Texas, Colorado, Washington and Hyderabad, India.

The acquisition, in addition to organic hires of 20 individuals this year, brings the total employed by Stryve to more than 100. 

Futuralis is an AWS advanced tier partner bringing impressive credentials and an illustrious client list to the Stryve offer. Amazon.com, Equifax, Nutrien, Zillow, The University of North Carolina, and Emmy award-winning Felix & Paul Studio are among them.

One recent collaboration saw Futuralis help successfully broadcast Nasa’s Artemis I space mission via the AWS Cloud, ensuring a first-of-its-kind immersive experience for audiences worldwide.

Stryve CEO Andrew Tobin (pictured) said: “Joining forces with Aravind and his highly specialist team gives Stryve a strong foothold in the United States, and an exceptional opportunity to expand globally with a formidable multi-cloud offering.

“Our mission is to provide innovative and scalable multi-cloud solutions, disaster recovery, backup, and cyber security expertise that protect our clients’ data, promote cyber-safer work environments and ultimately give customers greater peace of mind. Incorporating AWS expertise into our offering significantly enhances Stryve’s overall value proposition. We’re excited about what the future holds.”

Aravid Pamula, founder and president of Futuralis, said: “Joining the Stryve family marks a pivotal moment for Futuralis. With our partnership, we’re poised to catapult our AWS services into the EMEA market, extend 24/7 managed services to our expanding global clientele, and fast-track the development of our AWS-centric innovations to meet the growing demands of our customers.

“Beyond the technological synergy, what truly resonates with us is the remarkable alignment in organisational culture, streamlining our joint endeavours and speeding up our collaborative go-to-market solutions.”
