Novo Technologies, a telecoms infrastructure specialist based in Irvine, Scotland, has been acquired by VINCI Energies, a division of French concessions and construction giant VINCI,. The acquisition adds 71 staff to the international group.
Founded in 2016, Novo Technologies provides end-to-end telecoms infrastructure services, including acquisition, design, construction and maintenance, to both carriers and enterprise clients, as well as working on mobile network projects across the UK.

Russell Crampin, Perimeter Director at VINCI Energies in the UK & ROI, said that the deal represented “a core part of our strategic direction over the next three years.”
He continued: "As connectivity continues to underpin the digital transformation of businesses’ sites and field-based activity, strengthening our capabilities in wireless infrastructure delivery was a natural next step.”
Discussing the addition of Novo Technologies’ 71-strong team, Crampin added: “We are confident we can provide an environment that supports personal development, encourages knowledge sharing, and enables us to deliver even greater value to our customers.”
