International technology, media and telecoms law firm Olswang has advised the management team of Attenda, a UK hybrid IT managed services provider, on its acquisition by Ensono, a US based provider of IT infrastructure solutions and portfolio company of Charlesbank Capital Partners and M/C Partners.

Having grown since 1997 to be one of the UK's leading services providers, Attenda's specialism in delivering business-critical applications and managed services expertise will complement and strengthen the existing offerings of Ensono.

International Head of Corporate and Partner Mark Bertram commented: "Having worked for twenty years with the founding management team at Attenda, it is marvellous to see and play a part in this next chapter of the company's story. Each company brings inherently complementary offerings to the table, and this strategic partnership will enable the combined group to continue to innovate, drive new revenue streams and further expand its reach."

The Olswang team was led by Corporate Partners Mark Bertram and Chris Mackie with Tax Partner Mark Joscelyne and Corporate Senior Associate Georgina Ball.
