The technology consulting group XPartners expands the group with the specialist consulting company Acerail.

"It is with great joy we welcome AceRail to the XPartners family. That our collaboration platform attracts talented entrepreneurs and specialists is something we are very proud of and AceRail will fit well into our strategy for collaboration." says, Sonny Mirborn, XPartners CEO,

Since spring 2021, XPartners has worked to develop a multidisciplinary community building platform where various specialized companies and individuals collaborate for higher exchange in their work with the transition to a more sustainable society. The business model is based on value creation through collaboration and entrepreneurship, where each company within the group continues to conduct its business under its existing brand, but benefits from the advantages that group membership provides.

"XPartners is now growing with the acquisition of AceRail, a specialist consulting company in infrastructure with expertise in, among other things, track-related assignments for the public sector, which significantly strengthens the group's offer in infrastructure. AceRail and XPartners can together develop solutions that society needs at the same time as we contribute to long-term development for our employees" say Sonny Mirborn.
