Trilogy Technologies, a Dublin-headquartered IT services company, is eyeing further expansion in the UK following its recent buyout of London firm b2Lateral.

The group, which has annual sales of about €10 million, is on the lookout for similar acquisition targets in the southwest of the country. "We will be looking for a managed services provider, or possibly a company who might be more niche, in an area like security," group chief executive Edel Creely was recently quoted as saying in an IT trade publication.

The company also recently announced an expansion of its Irish operations, drafting taoiseach Enda Kenny in to help it announce a further 30 new jobs last April.

Trilogy’s turnover has almost trebled in the past four years.
