Strategic Acquisition Six Degrees was acquired by Claranet in June 2026, signaling a consolidation in UK managed services and potential access to Claranet’s broader customer base and cross-sell opportunities in cloud, cybersecurity, networks, workplace, data, and AI capabilities.

Managed SASE Expansion The launch of a Managed SASE service in November 2025 demonstrates Six Degrees' move into secure, cloud-native connectivity with Fortinet. This presents opportunities to upsell secure networking, SD-WAN, and zero-trust solutions to existing clients seeking remote work enhancements.

Microsoft Ecosystem As a Microsoft Azure MSP with deep Microsoft alignment, there are strong prospects to expand for clients needing Azure optimization, hybrid cloud migrations, and modernization initiatives leveraging Six Degrees' best-practice governance and credentialed security posture.

Cyber Security Focus Six Degrees emphasizes high security credentials, positioning them well to cross-sell enterprise-grade security services to mid-market and enterprise clients looking for comprehensive cyber resilience alongside cloud and modernization initiatives.

Partner Ecosystem Recent partnerships with Northamber and external distributors indicate a channel-driven route to market; leverage these relationships to target resellers and end customers requiring integrated cloud, security, and modernization solutions.
