The new partnership with HGGC will help Rimkus to broaden its service portfolio, better serve its clients, and further establish itself as the premier technical consulting firm.

“Rimkus is a proven leader with a fantastic brand and truly differentiated culture. Their track record and reputation among clients make them an exceptionally attractive partner for us,” said HGGC. “We look forward to helping Rimkus achieve growth by broadening its service offerings, deepening its already-strong bench of expertise, and investing in technology to enhance operations.”

Since 2020, Rimkus has made 15 strategic acquisitions, growing its network to more than 1,500 employees and more than 110 offices globally.
