Bär & Karrer with CVC Capital Partners on Acronis $250M Investment funding

Bär & Karrer acted as legal advisors to CVC on its contribution to the funding received by Acronis, the global operator in cyber protection, for more than 250 million USD. Acronis received the funding from CVC and other investors. The investment values the company at more than 2.5 billion USD.

Acronis will use the funds to further accelerate growth by expanding its unique portfolio of natively integrated cyber protection products. A significant portion of the investment will also be used to further enhance Acronis’ go-to-market initiatives by expanding its broad partner network – most notably managed service providers (MSPs) – to help them better serve the cyber protection needs of their clients
