Alstom has signed a purchase agreement for the acquisition of Nomad Holdings, commercially known as Nomad Digital from Amadeus Capital Partners, SEB Venture Capital and Deutsche Telekom Strategic Investments together with other investors.
Closing of the transaction should happen in early January 2017. Alstom will begin integrating Nomad Holdings into its own group from then, whilst ensuring that the company operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary, retaining its well-known brand and independent identity.
Nomad Digital employs around 230 people, and is headquartered in Newcastle, with 13 offices worldwide, principally in the UK, Netherlands, Germany, Portugal, Canada, Australia and the United States. Its turnover represents more than GBP 30 million (EUR 35.7 million). Nomad Digital, founded in 2002 in the United Kingdom, is a world leading provider of passenger and fleet connectivity solutions to the railway industry
Alstom has already been working with Nomad Digital, for example for the installation of WiFi on its Coradia Continental trains in Germany and the New Pendolino trains for SBB in Switzerland.
