Kiandra IT & Nexon

Kiandra IT becomes dedicated software development company with the sale of its Technology Services and Security Solutions divisions to Nexon Asia Pacific (Nexon).

For over 24 years Kiandra has maintained a strong reputation for providing innovative software development, and dependable managed and security services to mid-market, enterprise and government clients. The sale sees Nexon acquire the Managed Services and Security Solutions divisions of Kiandra IT.The sale enables the new-look Kiandra to focus on its growing Software Development division, Managing Director Cameron Brookes believes the transaction is a win-win for all parties.

Kiandra doubles down on custom software development

"It’s an exciting time for Kiandra and becoming a fully-focused Software Development company will help us address the growing demand for low-code and other rapid development technologies, particularly in helping our clients modernise legacy applications and migrate their applications to the cloud.

While we’re sad to part with a foundational element of the business we started 24 years ago, this acquisition will provide additional growth opportunities for team members moving to Nexon and give our clients access to the broad range of IT services they offer. We congratulate Nexon as they to go from strength to strength, and we’re super excited about Kiandra’s new, more focused future."

With Nexon looking to expand their service offering into the mid-market and build on their existing Melbourne footprint, Chief Executive Officer Barry Assaf believes the acquisition will be a great benefit to their customers.

“By acquiring these divisions, we are able to strengthen our security services offering to our customers. Kiandra’s Technology and Security services division has a well-established and competitive offering in the marketplace that will benefit many organisations.” 

Kiandra and Nexon will work closely together during the transition period to ensure minimal disruption for staff and clients and look forward building to an ongoing and complementary relationship.
