Growth process via acquisitions
According to Diego Gutierrez of Abra Invest, the Spanish market presents an opportunity for large ICT services companies to grow rapidly through acquisitions. The objective of integrations can be to expand the geographic scope of action or to complement the product portfolio with the incorporation of differential technology or specialised know-how.
"We are receiving enquiries from international ICT companies interested in identifying Spanish companies because they see Spain as a springboard to Latin America and because Spanish technical staff represent quality/cost advantages over European staff," he says. Diego Gutierrez.
