Homefield IT, based in New York, NY, was founded in 2012 by Joseph Rabinowitz, James Refino, and Christian Ugolini as ManhattanTechSupport.com, after leveraging their decades of combined IT experience. The Company grew significantly under the team's leadership, and expanded its footprint beyond the greater New York City metropolitan area. As such, the Company rebranded to Homefield IT in 2021. Throughout the Company's history, Homefield has maintained its core value of excellent customer service with emphasis on developing long-term relationships with customers and partners.
Homefield was acquired by Acrisure Cyber Services ("Acrisure Cyber"), a division of Acrisure, LLC, a global financial technology and insurance company headquartered in Grand Rapids, MI. Acrisure Cyber is led by Bill Meara, and is actively expanding into the IT managed services and technology solutions end market. The transaction with Homefield represents Acrisure Cyber's third acquisition in the IT managed services industry since January 2022. (Acrisure Press Release)
“This is a major milestone that we are all extremely proud of. The success that we have experienced is a direct result of having the most passionate team in the industry, consistently focused on delivering uncompromising service to our beloved clients. Acrisure's stellar reputation and vast resources will enable us to extend our reach, while providing increased opportunity and value to our incredible employees, customers and partners alike. I want to extend a special thanks to the RKCA team who did a stellar job running this process for us, and exceeding our expectations every step of the way” said Joseph Rabinowitz, Co-founder of Homefield IT.
“Joseph, Jim and Christian have built a differentiated top-tier IT MSP company building on their collective experience in the space. Buyer interest was high throughout the process and at the end we found the perfect partner in Acrisure Cyber Services that checked off the most important criteria for the three owners – a partner that can provide further growth opportunities and resources for the Homefield employees to scale the business to the next level. Congratulations to Joseph, Jim and Christian on building an outstanding company and executing their plan to perfection. We cannot wait to see the business scale to new levels under the leadership of Alex Stavdal and Jackie Oliva” said Mono Bhattacharya, Partner – RKCA Investment Banking.
"Homefield earns its clients’ business each and every day, which was inspiring for us to witness firsthand throughout the entirety of this process. We were honored and humbled to have ownership trust us with this engagement and process,” said Dominic Hering, Vice President – RKCA Investment Banking.
