HighWire acquired by MPS Limited

HighWire has been acquired by MPS Limited (MPS). 

This transaction brings together two industry-leading and highly-respected organizations that have defined the modern scholarly publishing segment globally. HighWire will be owned and operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary, retaining its brand, product suite and delivery infrastructure.
 
MPS is a leading global provider of content, platforms, and learning solutions to some of the world’s top publishers, educational institutes and corporates. With over 200 clients spread across geographies, MPS is powered by 2,500 employees distributed across seven development centers in India, two subsidiaries in Europe, and five offices in the United States. 
 
MPS and HighWire share an ethos of embedding flexibility into publishing solutions through strategic partner programs and have grown and evolved their respective businesses organically, through third-party integrations, and selective acquisitions. 
 
The combination presents a significant opportunity for MPS’ and Highwire’s customers. Increased resources, more comprehensive platform offerings, and a broader partner and distribution network are just some of the benefits.
 
MPS shares HighWire’s vision to provide outstanding technology and services to the scholarly publishing industry by creating the best digital experiences, and both organizations are fully committed to realizing that vision.
