LLR Partners Makes Investment to help Salute continue to scale its delivery of mission critical data center services to a global client base
This year has been one filled with amazing strategic partnerships to help Salute continue to achieve its mission of helping military veterans and their spouses. The latest partnership is no exception! LLR Partners recently announced that they are investing in Salute Mission Critical, a leading IT Data Center Lifecycle services company that recruits and trains military veterans to become world-class technicians. The partnership is one that was made to enable Salute’s continued rapid growth through the scaling of infrastructure, global operations and strategic M&A.
A Partnership to Be Proud Of
As a global leader in data center services, Salute Mission Critical is in a wonderful position to work with LLR Partners towards their shared missions.. The partnership will provide more job opportunities to veterans globally and scale its global operations to support the world’s leading data center providers. This means more veterans and military spouses can get jobs in the data center industry while closing the gap on the data center industry talent shortage. Veterans who were facing homelessness when hired are now self-supporting members of society. Salute empowers veterans and military spouses to make the career moves of their dreams that suit their families’ needs and goals with the right training.
It is no wonder that Salute’s Co-Founder, Lee Kirby recently expressed praise for the partnership, stating:
“I am thrilled to be partnering with LLR. The cultural alignment in this partnership will help us make an even greater impact for the industry and the lives of veterans and military spouses, proving that a triple bottom line approach is good for business and for the world.”
Delivering Results is ALWAYS Mission Critical for Salute and its Partners
Salute’s leaders take every partnership consideration very seriously and only partners with organizations that share in the mission and values of Salute. Salute’s CEO Jason Okroy recently noted:
“As our partner, LLR will not only provide the capital but also the experience helping businesses like ours continue to scale operations, teams and processes. This will enable Salute to capture more of this quickly growing market opportunity. I look forward to collaborating with the LLR team as we continue to enhance our ability to serve Salute’s leading customer base.”
Salute has made a significant impact on the data center industry and on the lives of the veterans and their families they have worked with. For this and many reasons, Salute has been awarded several recognitions, including 2020 Data Center Operations Team of Year by Data Center Dynamics; the Gold HIRE Vets Medallion from the U.S. Department of Labor; designation as a Top 10 Military Friendly Employer and the #7 rank in its category on Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500™ list for 2020. It is no wonder that VP of LLR Partner praised salute saying:
“Salute has been able to capitalize on strong tailwinds by maintaining a best-in-class recruiting and training program, consistently delivering high quality services and building strong customer relationships,” “We’re excited to partner with Jason and his team to help focus on the next stage of growth and global expansion for Salute.”
