We’re thrilled to share some fantastic news with all our wonderful clients and partners: Orca Online is merging with Connexus Cloud! This exciting merger, effective from August 1st, reunites the original team from the 5 Rings days and marks a new chapter of growth and innovation.
What does this mean for you?
Simply put, it’s business as usual, but with more resources and expertise to support your digital journey. Your immediate team and all your existing relationships will remain the same, and you’ll continue to receive the high-quality service you know and love.
The big difference? You now have access to an even larger team and cutting-edge technologies, ensuring we stay ahead in the ever-evolving digital landscape.
As part of this merger, we’re proud to become part of Connexus Cloud, a leading UK-based IT, cloud and cyber security provider committed to helping businesses stay secure, connected and competitive.
Connexus brings together years of experience across managed IT services, private and public cloud infrastructure, networking, unified communications, cyber protection, and now, digital. Their expertise means we can offer our clients an even more joined-up service — combining world-class infrastructure and cyber protection with hands-on digital strategy, design and delivery.
You can learn more about Connexus Cloud and the full range of services they offer at connexus.cloud.
This merger also marks a meaningful reunion. Paul (Founder of Orca) reunites with Connexus Owners and Directors Steve Maton, Nick Hatton and Pete Raynsford - the leadership team who originally built the 5 Rings brand before its acquisition. That shared journey, trust and alignment in values has made this next step feel incredibly natural.
We’re excited about what’s ahead. Together, we’re building something bigger — a place where cloud, cyber and digital come together to drive real business growth and resilience.
Thank you again for being part of the Orca story so far. We can’t wait to write the next chapter with you.
