InVentry acquires Singapore-based workplace management technology company as part of international growth plan

InVentry, a sign in and visitor management technology company based in Leeds, has acquired an international workplace management solutions company.

The strategic acquisition of Hipla Technologies will boost InVentry’s portfolio, with plans for product line expansion and an enhanced marketing strategy for UK and international growth, further cementing InVentry’s global presence.

Hipla Technologies is a leading provider of smart workplace solutions with bases in both Singapore and India. The company currently operates in the B2B space across various sectors with customers including Prestige, People Strong, Whiteland, Sattva, ATS as well as various other leading brands.

Sandeep Kaul, CEO of Hipla Technologies, said: “We’re really excited to become part of the InVentry family! Hipla’s existing product portfolio will complement InVentry’s core offering, helping us to provide the next generation of workplace solutions, covering crucial areas within visitor management, room management and door access control.”

Phil Lawson, director of InVentry, also added: “This strategic acquisition supports InVentry’s long-term growth strategy, allowing us to provide customers with a range of innovative, specialist products whilst still maintaining the quality that has made InVentry who we are today. The acquisition also enables us to provide more products to the UK market, and allows us to better serve our growing international customer base in areas such as the UAE and Southeast Asia, with the addition of two new bases in India and Singapore.”

Running alongside the acquisition InVentry will be increasing its marketing efforts, with a focus on digital content accompanied by an active search in growing their international reseller channel to bring InVentry to a broader audience, outside of the UK.

When commenting on InVentry’s dedicated reseller channel, Alain Squitieri, director of InVentry, said: “Our dedicated reseller channel has been a core part of our phenomenal growth over the last 10 years. We’re excited to be able to support our resellers with new products to build exceptional solutions for our customers. This acquisition brings huge opportunities to the group, and a platform to build on our global success.”
