Sepura acquired by UK private equity group
Sepura has announced it has been purchased by London-based private equity group Epiris. The group’s Epiris Fund II purchased Sepura from Hytera Communications.
The sale comes as critical communications supplier Sepura marks its 20th anniversary, having deployed over two million devices in over 20 countries. Its portfolio of TETRA radios and accessories is used by public safety users in the police, fire and ambulance services. It has also expanded into the commercial space, supplying transport, mining, oil and gas, and utility companies.
Steve Barber will continue to manage Sepura as CEO while Malcolm Miller, with whom Epiris previously worked as Chairman of Audiotonix, will join the company as non-executive chairman.
