Zacco continues its journey as a standalone business

14 March 2024

Zacco will become a standalone business, under the ongoing ownership of Investcorp, and will continue to offer our comprehensive range of IP solutions and services. This follows the recent announcement that Crane NXT has signed a definitive agreement to acquire OpSec Security.

For Zacco, this allows us to continue our 150-year journey and ongoing development as part of a respected private equity business that supports our vision and pioneering approach towards intellectual property. We anticipate this transition to occur and the transaction to close in the second quarter of this year, subject to the customary closing conditions and approvals.

At that time, we intend to establish a strong partnership between Zacco and OpSec to continue our collaboration and the momentum we have achieved to date. Since bringing together the two businesses with an intent to bring to life our shared vision to establish and protect intangible value, we have been greatly encouraged by the response this has received. We remain very excited by the possibilities that our combined capabilities and expertise offer our clients.

“Business as usual”

As a valued client, you should not notice any difference in our relationship: your contact person, terms, and services will remain unaffected. Our expert consultants will continue to provide you with our customary levels of high quality intellectual property and brand protection services, including access to any broader solutions delivered in conjunction with OpSec.

Looking ahead

Zacco is in a strong position, with an established long-term vision. We will continue to focus on our core services, our distinctive 360° service model and IPview platform, and a broadening of our expertise and offerings to help our clients fully optimize and safeguard their IP assets.

We are looking forward to sharing the next steps of our journey with you in due course.
