Aplus.Net provides Web hosting, dedicated server hosting, Web design and Web marketing services to approximately 90,000 small and medium-sized businesses. Founders Ivan and Lilian Vachovsky will retain a significant ownership stake while Ivan Vachovsky continues to serve on the board of directors. Ivan Vachovsky has resigned from the CEO position to pursue other opportunities. Gabriel Murphy will co-invest with Catalyst, and will serve as CEO and sit on the board of directors. Murphy co-founded CommuniTech.Net in 1997 then later sold it to Web.com in February 2002.
Aplus.Net has over 300 employees with operations in San Diego and Sacramento, California, Phoenix, Arizona, Sofia, Bulgaria and Manila, Philippines.
"We have been working with Gabriel for several years," says Tyler Newton, principal at Catalyst. "He brings the right combination of both sales and systems expertise to drive profitable growth at internet-based companies such as Aplus.Net. With a strong culture of profit-minded sales growth and customer care, Aplus.Net is an excellent platform for building what we believe will be the leading company in the hosting industry." | Reads: 936 | Category: General | Source: TheWHIR : Web Host Industry Reviews URL source: http://www.thewhir.com/marketwatch/120606_Catalyst_Investors_Acquires_Aplus_Net.cfm
