Cybersecurity distributor Brigantia has launched as Elovade UK and Ireland, completing its integration into the pan‑European Elovade Group following its acquisition in 2025.
Since the acquisition, the company has traded as Brigantia by Elovade. The move brings the UK and Ireland operation fully under the Elovade name, with the intention of maintaining continuity for partners while widening access to the group’s scale, vendor relationships and broader capabilities across Europe.
The business continues to be led by Managing Director Angus Shaw, who has also joined the Elovade Group board with responsibility for the wider portfolio. Partners will continue to work with the same team, vendor line‑up and day‑to‑day support familiar from Brigantia, now backed by the resources and reach of the European group.
Elovade CEO Philip Weber said the transition marks an important step in the company’s European growth. He highlighted the UK and Ireland team’s local market knowledge, partner relationships and value‑added approach, noting that closer alignment with the wider group will support additional opportunities for partners and vendors across the region.
Angus Shaw said launching as Elovade UK and Ireland represents the next chapter for the business, building on its established reputation in the channel. He added that the company’s portfolio, team expertise and partner relationships continue unchanged within the wider European organisation, with further developments expected in the coming months.
Elovade UK and Ireland forms part of one of Europe’s leading value‑added distribution groups, combining local channel expertise with the strength of a wider network. Across Europe, Elovade supports more than 25,000 system integrators, MSPs and channel partners with infrastructure, security and managed services solutions. Its approach is based on trust, expertise and tailored support, helping partners safeguard IT environments and reduce operational risks through strategic vendor relationships.
