The two companies will come together under the hedgehog lab brand and will be headed up by hedgehog lab’s current CEO Sarat Pediredla alongside a new executive board that includes ex-Accenture Song managing director and Karmarama founder Ben Bilboul.

Operating in the fast growth mobile and web development sector, BGF’s funding will enable the Group to further expand its service offering to enterprise clients and SMEs in both the UK and US.

Sarat Pediredla commented: “The acquisition of Netsells is a major milestone for us as a company. The combination of two firms with established and renowned capabilities will enhance our offering and growth prospects massively by bringing together some of the best talent in the industry and facilitating our continued expansion into new international markets.”

The deal was led by John Healey and James Baker, investors in BGF’s Yorkshire & North East team.
