3i Group, an international investment manager focused on mid-market private equity and infrastructure, agreed to acquire Evernex, an international provider of third-party maintenance services for data center infrastructure, from Carlyle Group, an American multinational private equity firm, for c. $450m. “Carlyle has been a key partner in Evernex’s growth story over the past 4 years, and we would like to thank the CETP team for all the support they have given to the group. The fruits of our ambitious strategy and our unique customer engagement model have been reflected in our growth in key geographic zones, notably in EMEA and Latin America. We look forward to continuing our development with our new majority shareholder and partner, 3i, who will support our next phase of growth across global markets,” Stanislas Pilot, Evernex CEO.
