This acquisition highlights Engage PEO's commitment to expanding its geographic footprint in the Midwest.

"We're excited about this transaction," said Jay Starkman, CEO of Engage PEO. "The Midwest is such a dynamic region for business growth, and expanding our presence here is a key part of Engage's strategy. Axios HR has been a trusted partner to small and mid-sized businesses for decades, and their deep roots in Michigan and the surrounding areas make this an ideal match. By combining our strengths, we're not just growing geographically-we're strengthening our ability to deliver exceptional HR services to businesses that are the backbone of the Midwest economy."
"Joining Engage PEO is an exciting next chapter for Axios HR," said Kellie Haines, CEO of Axios International. "Both companies share a passion for empowering businesses to succeed by providing tailored HR solutions. Engage's resources and expertise will enhance the level of service delivered to clients, while their 'Expect More' service culture aligns perfectly with Axios HR's. We are proud of what Axios HR has achieved and look forward to the opportunities this partnership brings for the clients and team members."
Jones Day acted as legal advisor to Engage PEO in connection with the acquisition. Dickinson Wright acted as legal advisor to Axios HR.
