Knowledge Solutions Complete Acquisition of Enlight

Combined group to offer solutions for IT change management, end-user adoption, knowledge transfer, certification management and ECDL/ICDL

Royston, UK and Stockholm, Sweden, 2nd December, 2008. Knowledge Solutions (UK) Ltd, the leading provider of IT change management and knowledge transfer solutions, has acquired 100% of Enlight, the leading provider of certification management, knowledge assurance and European/International Computer Driving Licence (ECDL/ICDL) solutions.

The announcement comes two years after Knowledge Solutions initially acquired a stake in Enlight, and in a carefully planned merger the two companies have moved to consolidate their operations.

Adrian Palmer-Geaves, CEO, Knowledge Solutions, said of the merger: “After working closely with Enlight for the last two years the value that we can bring to our customers as a combined entity has become clear. The synergy of Knowledge Solutions’ change management and knowledge transfer solutions, combined with Enlight’s domination of the ECDL/ICDL markets and leading certification management and knowledge assurance solutions, moves the group into an enviable position.

“With so many interrelated lines of business our capacity to tailor our solutions to our customer’s requirements is significantly enhanced. This ensures that in these uncertain times we can offer the best possible solutions at the best value.”

Erik Hult, CEO, Enlight, added: “Here at Enlight we’re excited about the potential that the combined group can bring to the market. Our expertise in ECDL/ICDL, certification and competence management fit perfectly with the Knowledge Solutions offering and we’re looking forward to bringing our customers and prospects the new proposition.”

The merger increases Knowledge Solutions operations in Stockholm and Umeå, Sweden, with Enlight’s UK team relocating to Royston, Hertfordshire.
