AnyTech365: An Efficient, Customer-First Approach to IT Security and Support

Founded in 2014, AnyTech365 offers subscription-based Technical Support as a Service (“TSaaS”), covering everything from IoT home devices to PC and software related issues. As cybersecurity rises in prominence and IT devices and software become increasingly complex systems for consumers and small businesses to navigate, AnyTech365 is simplifying the user experience, offering reliable and trustworthy support around the clock.

As a one-stop-shop, AnyTech365 addresses consumer tech issues in an efficient and comprehensive manner with both support service and extensive product features. Customers can choose from tiered subscription-based packages, which include around the clock access to the Company’s qualified technicians with extensive IoT knowledge. In addition, the Company offers best-in-class IT security technology leveraging artificial intelligence to proactively prevent cybersecurity threats combined with a fully compliant internal procedure certified by AppEsteem.

AnyTech365 intends to use the proceeds from the transaction to accelerate its growth strategy, including expanding its core business to meet increased demand, accelerating its strategic partnership with Media Markt, and pursuing strategic acquisitions.

Capitalizing on Favorable Market Tailwinds: The growing complexity of IoT technologies, alongside increased cybersecurity risk, has made it an opportune time for AnyTech365 to expand its legacy TSaaS business. With the devices with which we interact every day becoming increasingly complex and connected and digital operations migrating to the cloud, small businesses and consumers are increasingly looking for high-quality technical support. AnyTech365’s customer-first service offering is uniquely positioned to capitalize on the rising demand stemming from these trends. With a strong existing B2C presence and market resonance, the Company also has a tremendous opportunity to extend B2B applications serving small and medium enterprises across expanded end markets and geographies.

Expanding Strategic Partnerships: AnyTech365 is poised to scale its reach throughout Europe by expanding its recently announced partnership with Media Markt, Europe’s largest electronic retailer with over 1,000 stores and a leading ecommerce platform. The agreement will allow AnyTech365 to position technical personnel at each of Media Markt’s more than 100 stores in Spain to provide on-site technical support to customers and the opportunity to introduce the Company’s TSaaS services. Beyond Spain, the partnership is expected to roll out across additional EU territories where Media Markt operates.

Pursuing Complementary Acquisitions: The strong demand for TSaaS and the fragmented market presents a considerable opportunity for AnyTech365 to rapidly expand its service offerings and capabilities across end markets and geographies. With an industry leading compliance platform and scalable AI systems, AnyTech365 is positioned to achieve greater reach through consolidation in this nascent and fast-growing environment.
