Unosquare Acquires Airship in Birmingham, Alabama

PORTLAND, Ore. — Unosquare, one of the largest independent nearshore digital engineering companies, announces its acquisition of Alabama-based Airship, a leading provider of custom software and mobile applications for organizations of all sizes. Unosquare continues to expand globally with over 1,000 delivery professionals and operations across three continents.

The acquisition is a key part of Unosquare’s strategy to provide its clients with the highest quality nearshore and onshore delivery of digital transformation and product engineering services. Airship adds more onshore delivery capability along with vertical specialization to Unosquare’s suite of digital services offered.

“The acquisition of Airship further cements our ability to provide high-quality onshore delivery,” said Giancarlo Di Vece, Unosquare CEO. “We will continue investing in our clients’ needs and partnering with them through all phases of their digital journeys. We are excited about the team at Airship, the capabilities they offer and how they complement our vision.”

The Airship acquisition is the latest successful US-based transaction for Unosquare. This follows upon the onshore addition of Catalyst UX’, a user experience design company based in Silicon Valley, in October of this year.

“Unosquare’s team continues to demonstrate a unique ability to partner with great founders and their teams,” said Mario R. Masrieh, Principal at Trivest Partners. “This acquisition follows upon Unosquare’s strategic planning efforts to bolster the company’s impressive nearshore delivery with additional US based talent.”

Airship’s focus on digital solution exploration and discovery grounds their work with a focus on their client’s goals, ensures a partnership is a good fit and leads to lasting value. This meshes with Unosquare’s track record of forming long-lasting client partnerships creating stable workstreams.

“We are extremely excited to be joining the Unosquare team,” says Trent Kocurek, Airship CEO. “Not only will we continue to deliver the value and experiences that our clients expect from us, we now have the opportunity to bring a myriad of additional offerings to the market that will increase our ability to serve and create transformational change.”
