The experts distinguished Softline in two nominations – Transaction of the Year up to £25M and Information Technology Deal of the Year.

The reason for both nominations was the purchase by the Softline Group of the Russian unit of Insight Corporation.

“Two nominations in which the experts noted Softline are a signal that the investment community is monitoring the group’s activity in the mergers and acquisitions market and recognizes the high level of corporate functions, such as investments and M&A. The status of the finalist of the EMEA Corporate Growth Awards makes Softline noticeable for professionals in the financial industry. I am sure that further activities in purchasing assets from different sectors of the IT market in different geographic regions will only strengthen the attention to Softline and will make the company even more understandable and interesting for investors,” says Elena Volotovskaya, vice president for investments of Softline Group.
