Claranet & CorpFlex: The New Power Couple of Brazilian Cloud
Claranet, the globe‑wide tech and managed services titan, has just swooped in to acquire CorpFlex, a Brazilian private‑cloud powerhouse that’s been making waves since 1992.
Why Brazil Got a Big Cloud Boost
CorpFlex has been a major player across Brazil’s key sectors—healthcare, transportation, industry, services, and agro‑business—offering private, public and hybrid cloud solutions plus top‑notch cyber‑security, data management and network services.
Now, with Claranet’s global reach on board, the new Claranet Brazil will supercharge its service lineup, adding a killer combo of infrastructure, security and networking that works for everyone.
Claranet Says “We’re Going Explosive Now”
António Miguel Ferreira, Claranet’s Chief of Iberia and Latin America, threw in a high‑energy pitch: “We’ve grown Iberia by more than 800% in the last four years, reaching €128 m in revenue. Brazil’s next.
Celebrating twenty‑five years in Europe, Claranet kicked off in Brazil in late 2017, starting with the public cloud and already pulling big names—Embraer, TV Globo and Banco Fibra—into the fold.
“This is the moment to move from a small‑town hero to a continent‑wide legend,” Ferreira continued, “and that’s exactly what CorpFlex gives us.”
CorpFlex’s CEO Says They’re the Perfect Match
Edivaldo Rocha, CorpFlex’s CEO, added, “Joining forces with Claranet is the ultimate way to bring more value to our clients in Brazil.
It’s been a winning strategy in Europe, and now we’re ready to bring local know‑how and a global muscle to this market.”
Claranet’s Founder on the “Synergy” Story
Founder and Group CEO Charles Nasser praised the merger: “Combining our public and private cloud strengths is a match made in tech heaven.”
He also highlighted the team’s bright future: “With a talented squad now part of the Claranet family, we’ll keep adding tech, platforms and skills that keep our customers happy.”
Welcome, CorpFlex!
Claranet’s cheers extend to the CorpFlex team: “We’re thrilled to have you on board and can’t wait to grow our presence together in Brazil.”
