Telecon acquires SC360 and strengthens the scope of its connectivity services in Canada

Telecon, the national leader in telecommunications network infrastructure services (designing, building and connecting networks), today announced the acquisition of SC360, a company specializing in residential installation, business connectivity, managed service provider (MSP) connectivity services and installation and maintenance of network infrastructure. SC360 has over a dozen locations and more than 600 employees throughout Canada, with an increased presence in Québec and Ontario.

This strategic acquisition strengthens the presence and scope of Telecon’s existing connectivity services in Canada, particularly in several key secondary markets in Québec and Ontario. It also significantly increases the company’s offering to cable companies and diversifies its client base.

Nationally, Telecon’s connectivity team now has a crew of nearly 900 skilled employees to provide high- quality services to network operators and businesses.

SC360’s activities will continue under the current banner, recognized in the market for its versatility, agility and excellent client approach. Gaston Dandurand, currently President of SC360, will continue to lead the team under the leadership of Daniel Robillard, Senior Vice-President, Connectivity and Telecon Enterprise.

For this transaction, Telecon benefits from the funding and strategic support of institutional investors including Clearspring Capital Partners, Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec and Capital régional et coopératif Desjardins, as well as funding from members of Telecon’s Senior Leadership team.
