HostPapa Signs Definitive Agreement to Acquire the CloudBlue Business From Ingram Micro

Burlington, ON – June 4, 2025

HostPapa, Inc., a leading global provider of digital solutions, announced it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire the CloudBlue business from Ingram Micro (NYSE: INGM). This strategic acquisition will strengthen HostPapa's position as a cloud services platform for customers, enabling digital transformation through partnerships with telcos, Managed Service Providers (MSPs), resellers, agencies, and hyperscalers.

The acquisition centers on CloudBlue's Connect and Commerce platform, featuring over 450 pre-built integrations that enable automated provisioning, subscription billing, and service orchestration across multi-tier partner ecosystems. The deal will also unlock potential to transform key CloudBlue functionality suited to serve smaller and mid-sized channel partners.

CloudBlue has been a pioneer in cloud distribution and subscription commerce, empowering thousands of partners and Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) globally. Combined with Hostopia, HostPapa's Partner Platform, this positions HostPapa to deliver a unified, partner-ready solution that simplifies cloud service delivery, drives automation, and increases recurring revenue opportunities across the ecosystem.

CloudBlue also brings significant sales, engineering, services and operational talent to HostPapa. HostPapa expects to make further investments to position the CloudBlue business for long-term success.

"We're incredibly excited about the future of CloudBlue under HostPapa's leadership," said Jamie Opalchuk, Founder & Chief Executive Officer at HostPapa. "CloudBlue was one of the pioneering leaders in subscription billing and partner marketplaces."

The combined platform will focus on accelerating innovation in ISV onboarding, white-label marketplaces, and hyperscaler integrations. HostPapa is committed to simplifying service bundling, enhancing partner go-to-market agility, and evolving the platform to support outcome-based, AI-powered cloud solutions.

"Combining CloudBlue with Hostopia allows us to create a next-generation monetization platform," said Jorge Carvalho, President of HostPapa. "This is a major step in our mission to empower our customers in an increasingly digital, subscription-driven world."

Terms were not disclosed. Closing is expected in the third quarter of 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.
