On the deal, Dave Smith, president and CEO of ASPEQ, said in a statement, “IGP provided valuable support and resources to assist ASPEQ as we executed on our long-term strategic plan to grow the Company and better serve our customers. Despite the challenges of COVID and heightened market uncertainty over the past several years, we doubled down on our strategic initiatives and emerged ultimately stronger and nearly twice as large. I’m very proud of my team and thankful for the resolve that IGP demonstrated during that turbulent time and for their guidance throughout the course of the partnership. ASPEQ is now positioned better than ever for growth as part of SPX Technologies.”
