FORTÉ, formerly AVI Systems, announced it has acquired Informationsteknik Scandinavia AB, headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden. With operations in both Sweden and Denmark, this acquisition further expands FORTÉ’s European presence and advances its strategy to support global organizations with modern AV and unified collaboration solutions.
“Informationsteknik has served customers in Sweden and Denmark since 1989. With seven locations and more than 120 employees, the team is committed to customer service and technology solutions designed to transform the modern workplace,” says Jeff Stoebner, chairman and CEO at FORTÉ. “Through a combination of high standards and deep technical expertise, this business is an ideal fit with the FORTÉ mission to deliver future-ready solutions for communication and collaboration globally.”
FORTÉ and Informationsteknik To Strengthen Local Impact and Drive Global Presence
Per the company, the acquisition solidifies FORTÉ’s position as a leader in both the United States and Europe, while enhancing the company’s ability to deliver global solutions.
According to the statement, Informationsteknik has built a reputation for delivering seamless, high-impact solutions across corporate, education, and event environments. With decades of experience and a strong local presence, the team of professionals has made the organization a trusted partner for many prominent organizations in Scandinavia.
“Joining FORTÉ marks an exciting new chapter for Informationsteknik,” remarks Patrik Camp, who will become CEO of FORTÉ in Sweden. “As part of the FORTÉ growth strategy, we can expand our reach, strengthen our capabilities, and deliver even greater value to our customers.”
Moving forward, the existing audiovisual integration business in Sweden and Denmark will become FORTÉ serving customers throughout the two countries. The organization adds that its events businesses will continue under two brand names — Informationsteknik in Sweden and Get Visual in Denmark — due to their strong recognition and trusted reputations managing high-profile live corporate event and meeting solutions.
FORTÉ says it will continue to invest in people and infrastructure to serve local, regional, and global customers, helping them transform the workplace, manage technology estates, and adapt to emerging solutions including artificial intelligence. Additionally, the Sweden and Denmark locations will continue to serve as Regional Business Units of GPA, a global delivery engine.
