Virtusa, a digital engineering and IT firm based in Southborough, has acquired Mav3rik, an Australian-based company focused on helping firms utilize Salesforce products.

The move is designed to improve Virtusa’s own Salesforce-related capabilities while strengthening the company’s footprint in the Asia-Pacific region, according to a Virtusa press release issued Tuesday. 

“We see these regions as technology powerhouses that will serve as engines of innovation and growth both for Virtusa and the digital economy in the years to come,” Nitesh Banga, president and CEO of Virtusa, said in the press release. “Bringing Virtusa and Mav3rik capabilities together demonstrates our strong commitment to deliver purposefully on our regional clients' strategic imperatives.”

Serving clients in the public sector, healthcare, and other industries, Mav3rik helps companies implement Salesforce’s customer relationship management tools and other software provided by the company, including MuleSoft, a product which helps connect applications, data, and devices across various environments.

"We're proud to join forces with Virtusa," Sean Finucane, director and co-founder of Mav3rik, said in the press release. "This will enable us to move faster, go further, and deliver even more value to our clients in Australia, New Zealand, and beyond."

Virtusa has more than 27,000 employees and 220 clients in 25 countries, according to its website. Banga, a former CEO of GlobalLogic, a subsidiary of Japanese conglomerate Hitachi, became the company’s leader in February.
