Wireless Logic welcomes General Atlantic, a global investor, as a new minority shareholder, through investment from the firm’s BeyondNetZero climate growth equity fund.
The company’s existing shareholder, Montagu, a mid-market private equity firm, will remain the majority shareholder, reinvesting alongside General Atlantic.
The transaction, which values Wireless Logic at £3.5 billion, is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the third quarter of 2025.
Founded in 2000 and headquartered in the UK, Wireless Logic is a specialist in IoT connectivity, dedicated to bridging the physical and digital worlds with seamless, secure, and scalable solutions for businesses in any sector. The platform helps clients from a diverse range of industries connect and manage all their IoT devices, no matter the device, geography or network, in a single platform. The company is net zero aligned through its commitment to SBTi, and plays a key role in enabling a vast range of IoT connected energy transition and climate applications, including smart grids, micro-mobility, industrial optimisation, and precision agriculture.
With continued backing from Montagu and the additional support of General Atlantic, Wireless Logic is primed to continue its high growth trajectory. By pursuing an organic investment and active acquisition strategy, Wireless Logic is expected to further strengthen its market-leading position by driving global geographic expansion, diversifying market channels, and enhancing its platform offering.
Partnering with General Atlantic will bring complementary global scale and network, as well as technological and operational capabilities, including the experience from General Atlantic’s Vice Chairman of EMEA, Vittorio Colao, who previously served as Minister of Technological Innovation and Digital Transition for the Italian government and as CEO of Vodafone Group. Mr. Colao joins Wireless Logic’s Board alongside existing Chairman, Sir Michael Rake, who previously served as Chairman of BT Group and President of the Confederation of British Industry.
Wireless Logic Co-Founder and CEO Oliver Tucker said: “Wireless Logic, Montagu and General Atlantic share a collective ambition to reinforce Wireless Logic’s market leadership and mission to simplify and automate IoT connectivity and management for customers globally, as well as create value for investors and establish a great place to work. I look forward to the next phase of our growth journey.”
Ed Shuckburgh, Managing Partner – CEO at Montagu said: “We are excited to continue backing Wireless Logic through the next stage of growth having first invested in the business in 2018. This reinvestment demonstrates our continued confidence in Wireless Logic’s exceptional growth trajectory, and we are thrilled to have General Atlantic partnering alongside us. We are enthusiastic about the opportunity for Wireless Logic as it continues to cement its position as the Internet of Things solutions provider of choice for customers globally.”
Gabriel Caillaux, Co-President, Global Head of Climate, and Head of General Atlantic’s EMEA business, said: “We are pleased to support the next stage of Wireless Logic’s journey in partnership with Montagu. Wireless Logic has positioned itself as a leader in the rapidly expanding IoT market, and in turn as a key enabler of the energy and climate transition, providing data transparency, operational efficiency, and cost reductions across industries to accelerate energy efficiency for the future. We believe there is a strong opportunity for the Company to achieve further growth, through transformational M&A, which it has already proved itself adept at, and continued geographic expansion across Europe, North America, LATAM, and APAC.
“From its founding in 2000, Wireless Logic has demonstrated strong resilience, by building a highly diversified customer base and generating uninterrupted growth since inception. We look forward to partnering with Montagu and Wireless Logic’s high quality management team as the Company embarks on its next stage of growth.”
