Littlefish Group acquires cyber specialist Stripe OLT

Published: February 17, 2026

Littlefish Group acquires cyber specialist Stripe OLT, accelerating growth and strengthening end-to-end Microsoft services

As demand for integrated IT and cyber security services continues to rise across the UK, Littlefish Group has announced its acquisition of Stripe OLT, a rapidly growing leader (scale-up) in managed IT and cyber security with a proven track record in Microsoft-led solutions, enabling Littlefish to further solidify its position in an expanding market.

With a combined workforce of now 900 specialists, the acquisition marks a major milestone in Littlefish Groupโ€™s strategic expansion. It reinforces the organisationโ€™s long-term ambition to become the UKโ€™s leading end-to-end digital services provider, leveraging deep Microsoft expertise to elevate workplace experiences and transform outcomes for their customers.

With a comparable client base across cyber security and managed services, this combination further strengthens the Groupโ€™s position supporting public sector and national healthcare services. Both organisations are fast-growing, highly profitable, and aligned in their customer-first approach.

The acquisition will enable Littlefish Group to significantly accelerate the expansion of its managed services and advanced cyber security operations across the UK. Stripe OLT brings deep cyber expertise through its CREST-accredited SOC, threat detection, and offensive penetration testing capabilities.

This strategic move substantially enhances the Groupโ€™s comprehensive security portfolio, reinforcing its position as a leading provider of enterprise grade cyber security services. Together, the combined business strengthens the Groupโ€™s ability to deliver specialist, scalable cyber security and managed services for organisations with complex regulatory and critical security needs.

On the acquisition, Ursula Morgenstern, CEO, Littlefish Group, commented:

โ€œThis acquisition is a decisive step in how we scale the business. Our ambition is to build a truly end-to-end services organisation, with a user-centric approach at its core โ€”to help organisations work smarter, reduce friction, operate safely and deliver better outcomes for their people.โ€

โ€œStripe OLT is a fast-growing, Microsoft-focused business with deep cyber capability and a culture that closely mirrors our own. Bringing their team into the group strengthens our security proposition, accelerates our growth, and meaningfully enhances the value we deliver to customers.โ€

Mark Dale, Stripe OLT, Founder, added:

โ€œJoining Littlefish Group marks an exciting next chapter for our business. Having grown year on year since 2021, it was important to partner with an organisation that shares our ambition and values.โ€

โ€œThis move allows us to scale our impact, creating greater opportunities for our people and enhanced capabilities for our clients, while remaining focused on end-user centricity.โ€

Together, Littlefish Group and Stripe OLT will deliver an expanded portfolio of Microsoft-led services across cyber security, managed IT and modern workplace solutions, combining scale-up momentum with a shared commitment to their customers.
