By acquiring GRC, Marlink adds a long-standing and reputable UK operation with defence-focused engineering, product and service capabilities to its Government and Defence business unit. For GRC, Marlink brings scale, engineering and innovation capabilities, global operations, established satellite network partnerships and financial strength to support growth beyond the UK market. “This acquisition is an important step in scaling our European government and defence business,” said Erik Ceuppens Marlink Group CEO. “GRC brings proven defence expertise, and a deep relationship with the UK Ministry of Defence. Together, we can offer broader managed services to defence, government and critical infrastructure customers as their communications and digital needs become more complex.”
