Infonet Information Technologies

What Infonet Information Technologies does

Infonet Information Technologies is a Turkey-based Value-Added Distributor (VAD) of enterprise cybersecurity and IT operations software, founded in 1995 and headquartered in Istanbul with a second office in Ankara. The company carries a multi-vendor portfolio that includes tier-1 security principals Check Point, Forcepoint, Trend Micro, RSA, Kaspersky, and Infoblox, alongside adjacent vendors such as Allot, FireMon, Progress Ipswitch, Indeni, and TeamViewer. Its go-to-market combines traditional software distribution with technical pre-sales, professional services delivered through subsidiary INVENTUM Teknoloji ve Bilgi Hizmetleri A.Ş., and certified training via the Infonet Akademi academy, positioning the firm as a full-stack channel partner for Turkish enterprises and public-sector buyers.

The business model is classic VAD economics: revenue is generated through distribution margins on third-party software licenses, augmented by attached services, training, and support contracts. Operational credibility is reinforced by SOC 2 Type II certification, a relevant credential when onboarding enterprise customers and global vendors. Co-founder Kemal Cılız has been a continuous presence, lending reputational continuity over a 30-year operating history in a market where channel relationships are decisive.

In May 2026, Infonet was acquired in full by QBS Software Group, a pan-EMEA software distribution platform. The transaction places Infonet inside a larger European distribution roll-up, with Uğur Uçanok appointed as General Manager following the transition. The strategic intent is clearly cross-border leverage: combining Infonet's Turkish footprint and vendor relationships with QBS's wider European scale, shared back-office, and cross-sell capacity. The near-term trajectory will hinge on integration execution, retention of principal vendor mandates, and whether QBS routes additional product lines through the Turkey entity.
