The Leading Next Generation Technology Services Platform Enters the Carolinas

Thrive, a global technology outsourcing provider for cybersecurity, Cloud, and IT managed services has announced the acquisition of The Longleaf Network, a leading North Carolina-based provider. The Longleaf customers will now have access to cutting edge solutions driven by Thrive’s global Security Operation Center (SOC) & Cloud Footprint, backed by their 1,300 expert technology employees worldwide. The combination of the local North Carolina team with Thrive’s 24x7x365 service delivery mandate will greatly enhance the customer experience and provide additional technology ROI.

Thrive’s commitment has always been to continue growing, expanding, and innovating to provide the best technology solutions for their clients.

Together, Thrive and The Longleaf Network will ensure that every business they work with has the resources needed to achieve their desired business outcomes while accelerating their digital transformation journeys.

“The Longleaf Network has a proven track record of bringing customer-first IT strategy and services to clients across North Carolina – a culture that resonated with us from the beginning,” said Rob Stephenson, CEO of Thrive. “The Longleaf partnership will provide us with a strong market presence in a very desirable North Carolina footprint to expand our client base via our NextGen platform.”

The acquisition comes at a time of continuous growth for Thrive, having completed ten previous acquisitions over the past two years, as well as double-digit organic growth via widespread adoption of their cybersecurity, Cloud, and managed services platform. The company continues to add to their list of offerings, including Thrive Incident Response & Remediation and Dark Web Monitoring, to ensure Thrive delivers the most advanced and beneficial solutions to their customers.
