Black Box Ltd, the technology arm of Essar, today announced the completion of its acquisition of 2S Inovações Tecnológicas S.A., a Brazil-based provider of digital infrastructure, data center networking, cloud, cybersecurity, and managed technology solutions. The acquisition advances Black Box’s long-term objective of achieving $2 billion in annual revenues by 2030.
The acquisition, effective May 1, significantly strengthens Black Box’s capabilities and market presence across Latin America, particularly in high-growth areas such as data center networking, digital connectivity, cybersecurity, and managed infrastructure services.
The transaction is expected to contribute approximately ₹500 crore in annualised revenues and strengthen networking and data center business across Latin America, while enhancing delivery of integrated, end-to-end digital infrastructure solutions globally.
“2S brings deep expertise in Cisco networking, enterprise and data center infrastructure, cloud, cybersecurity, and managed services, which strongly complements Black Box’s global capabilities across digital infrastructure, networking, connected workspaces, and technology integration,” said Sanjeev Verma, Whole-Time Director and Chief Executive Officer of Black Box.
The 2S Inovações Tecnológicas delivers end-to-end digital infrastructure solutions spanning consulting and strategy, enterprise and data center networking, cloud and hybrid infrastructure, cybersecurity operations, systems integration, managed services, and lifecycle optimisation.
Stressing Brazil’s role as a regional hub for digital infrastructure transformation and services delivery owing to increasing cloud adoption, AI-driven infrastructure investments, and strong talent base, Black Box said the acquisition enhances the customer support from network modernisation and data center integration to managed operations and cybersecurity.
