MINNEAPOLIS & HONG KONG – August 26, 2026 – In a move that signals a seismic shift in the global technology landscape, communication solutions leader FORTÉ has acquired Vega Global, the largest and most influential systems integrator in the Asia-Pacific region. The deal creates a juggernaut in the workplace technology sector, one with a direct operational presence in 22 countries and the capability to serve over 70 major markets. But beyond the impressive numbers, this acquisition represents a profound strategic pivot, transforming how multinational corporations may source, standardize, and support the digital tools that bind their global workforce.
The acquisition is the culmination of a period of deliberate evolution for the Minneapolis-based company. Formerly known as AVI Systems, the firm rebranded to FORTÉ in April 2025 to better reflect its focus on comprehensive collaboration solutions. Now, by integrating Vega Global, it is making a definitive statement about its ambition: to build a wholly-owned global delivery network, moving away from the partnership model that has long defined international expansion in the industry.
A New Global Contender Emerges
With the stroke of a pen, FORTÉ has dramatically altered its scale and reach. The integration of Vega Global and its 750-plus professional staff—a nearly 50% increase in FORTÉ's workforce—cements its presence across key APAC markets, from economic powerhouses like China and Japan to rapidly growing hubs in India, Singapore, and Australia.
