This Solihull-based unified comms specialist’s pro-forma revenues hit £200m in April 2023 when it completed its purchase of AIM-listed peer Adept. Accounts for Wavenet’s year to 31 March 2023 show its top line virtually doubling pro-rata to £131m as it digested recent acquisitions including OGL and Excell. The Macquarie Capital-backed outfit counts Microsoft, BT, Gamma, Extreme Networks, 8×8, Five9, Darktrace, Cato and Gigamon among its key vendors.
