In August 2024, Storm announced that it had been acquired by Littlefish, an award-winning managed IT and cyber security services provider based in Nottingham, UK. We believe that this acquisition further strengthens Storm’s service portfolio for both new and existing clients in Ireland, particularly within the managed IT services and cyber security space, and facilitates future growth, enabling the delivery of its Microsoft business solutions to the UK market. In turn, this will see both companies extend their capabilities across larger scale projects and to a wider breadth of clients.
