Brussels, 25 February 2025
The European Commission has approved, under the EU Merger Regulation, the acquisition of joint control of Gigamon Inc. by Siris Capital Group, LLC and Elliott Investment Management L.P., all of the US.
The transaction relates primarily to enterprise application software, namely security and observability tools as well as security information and event management tools.
The Commission concluded that the notified transaction would not raise competition concerns, given that the companies are not active in the same or vertically related markets. The notified transaction was examined under the simplified merger review procedure.
More information is available on the Commission’s competition website, in the public case register under the case number M.11824.
