"We are committed to the success of our customers and our employees. Thanks to them, we have built a thriving business that delivers award-winning innovative software for the telecommunication and utility industries worldwide. The proposed acquisition is in direct response to this success, creating an opportunity for us to accelerate investment in our people, processes, and products and increase our ability to respond to market momentum. It's also important to us that there is close cultural alignment between KKR's Global Impact and Technology Growth funds with IQGeo's focus on innovation and mission to bridge the digital divide and build the net-zero energy networks of the future.
