Private investment firm Washington Harbour Partners has acquired SIXGEN Incorporated, a cyber solutions company for the US national security, intelligence, and defence communities, and critical commercial industries.
The acquisition of SIXGEN is a natural fit for Washington Harbour’s operational and domain expertise in high-growth companies in non-cyclical industries, including government services, defence technology, cybersecurity, software, and tech-enabled business and consumer services. SIXGEN will continue to be led by the company’s founder and CEO, Ethan Dietrich.
This acquisition is Washington Harbour’s second platform investment in the US Federal Government IT sector. SIXGEN’s cyber services and product suite is designed to meet the unique and specific needs of the nation’s most important cybersecurity problems.
