Codan acquires Kägwerks

Codan Group, through a wholly owned subsidiary Codan US Inc, it has entered into a binding agreement to acquire 100% of US-based organisation Kägwerks. Kägwerks is a global leader in tactical operator-worn networking communications technologies that enable connectivity and integrated secure networking in a military environment. Kägwerks has developed a portfolio of proprietary “DOCK” branded hardware and software solutions that provide soldiers with a lightweight network hub integrating disparate equipment into a single compact communications solution. This technology provides superior situational awareness and strategic advantage in field operations by optimising real-time battlefield intelligence. The acquisition of Kägwerks is consistent with Codan’s growth strategy to develop or acquire complementary IP and technologies, in this case the technology being acquired includes a radio agnostic dismounted communications solution. This will enable Tactical Communications to broaden its offering as a full tactical military radio solutions provider and to build capability, credibility and scale in the core markets it operates in.
