Schouw-backed GPV, a Danish EMS provider, agreed to merge with Ahlström Capital-backed Enics, a Swiss-headquartered EMS provider, in a €60m deal. Both companies have particular strengths in the industrial segment, serving a broad range of customers with no particular overlap, and they complement each other in terms of production technology, know-how and geographical presence. The combined company will have production facilities across 13 countries on three continents and about 7.5k employees.
