Linx International and Tavcom report an agreement resulting in Linx acquiring a majority shareholding in Tavcom.
Tavcom is the Hampshire-based security systems training company; and Surrey-based The Linx International Group includes Linx Consulting and the security management trainers, ARC Training International and Perpetuity Training. David Gill, CEO of Linx International Group, pictured right, said: “Tavcom’s unrivalled expertise in the systems training market, combined with the Linx International Group’s reputation for providing premier security management training, will provide an unparalleled offering to the sector. Our plan is for Tavcom to continue to operate under its existing brand within the Linx International group and clients will therefore continue to receive the outstanding levels of service that they have come to expect. However, the inclusion of Tavcom within the Group presents a fantastic opportunity to create a global leader in both security management and security systems training.”
