Bell has completed its acquisition of FX Innovation, a Montréal-based provider of cloud-focused managed and professional services and workflow automation solutions. Announced last month, Bell says the acquisition will combine FX Innovation’s agility, start-up culture, and cloud services expertise with Bell’s next-generation fibre and 5G networks, resources, and scale to deliver leading-edge technology solutions for Canadian businesses backed by its network. FX Innovation will continue to operate independently under the leadership of Guillaume Bazinet.
