Wigan’s IT and managed networks provider EvolveODM has formally acquired and incorporated Sheffield-based mobile telecoms provider 4G Voice and Data under the EvolveODM brand. The deal includes the retention of all 4G voice and Data employees. The news marks EvolveODM’s second major acquisition in three months, since it bought GB3 from EG Group in November 2022, with the company’s Northern presence now spanning Yorkshire and Lancashire as well as its Greater Manchester HQ.

4G Voice and Data was founded in 2012 and specialises in the B2B mobile telecommunications market working with all major UK mobile networks. It has been led by the EvolveODM team of directors, including Alan StephensonBrown, Ryan Stephenson-Brown and Rob Brown, since 2017. The 2023 deal formally incorporates the 4G entity within EvolveODM, while maintaining its services, staff and customer base.

“We are delighted to kick off the year with a bang, growing our presence across Northern England by bringing on board a fantastic business. This is a great fit that will allow us to provide a fully galvanised connectivity solution to our customers.

“The team at 4G has been able to achieve some really exciting things, for instance providing mobile solutions at the recent World Cup. Combining our offerings means creating a true one-stop-shop here in the North for both UK and International businesses that need a reliable partner for their connectivity solutions.”
