CRDF Global has acquired Development Innovations Group for an undisclosed sum to expand its security assistance and development offerings in support of customers’ missions.
DIG is a privately held international development firm focused on supporting developing and transitioning economies and post-conflict and post-disaster environments in Asia, Latin America, Africa, the Caribbean and the Middle East, CRDF said Tuesday.
“Together with the DIG team, we saw the opportunity with this acquisition to increase our combined impact in the increasingly critical nexus of security and development,” said CRDF Global CEO Mike Dignam.
CRDF closed the transaction on July 31 and Dignam said law firm Nichols Liu served as the lead adviser in the acquisition.
“By combining DIG’s development experience with its strong background in security assistance, CRDF Global has taken a meaningful step towards its goal of supporting human security missions around the world,” said Alonzo Fulgham, a board member at CRDF Global.
Arlington, Virginia-based CRDF Global is a nonprofit organization that has been providing support in the areas of international security cooperation, cybersecurity and digital resilience, nonproliferation, food security, global health, professional exchanges and economic development for more than two decades in over 120 countries.
