This is the third acquisition by CORSAIR since\u00a0EagleTree Capital secured a majority share in the company back in 2017.<\/span><\/p>\n

Duncan Ironmonger, Founder and CEO of Scuf Gaming<\/strong>,commented on the sale in a release:\u00a0\u201cIn late 2016, SCUF went through a rigorous process to select the right strategic private equity partner. Three years later, I can happily say that our decision to partner with H.I.G. Growth Partners was the right decision.<\/span><\/p>\n

“From the outset, Evan, John, and the rest of the H.I.G. team helped us grow and mature SCUF in a meaningful way by not only investing in the business, but also advising on aspects of operations, finance, and strategy. Their experience proved a great sounding board for me and my management team, and I am grateful for the experiences and successes we shared.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Scuf Gaming will remain a separate brand and will continue operations from its Atlanta headquarters. H.I.G. Growth Partners, which sold the company to CORSAIR, will continue to target “high-growth investments in the consumer and technology sectors.”<\/span><\/p>\n

The controller company is partnered with the likes of Call of Duty League<\/a>,\u00a0OpTic Gaming<\/a>,\u00a0NBA 2K League<\/a>, FaZe Clan, and eMLS.<\/span><\/p>\n

Esports Insider says: The finalisation of the deal gives CORSAIR a strong foothold in console peripherals market, a market that’s particularly competitive. Scuf Gaming, however, is a leader in its lane and – depending on the financial aspects of the acquisition – is an incredible grab by CORSAIR.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
