About

Gossamer Threads Inc. is a Canadian company specializing in managed hybrid cloud solutions, providing organizations with secure and efficient cloud services tailored to meet diverse operational needs. Gossamer Threads Inc. was founded in 1996 and operates from Vancouver, Canada.


The company focuses on providing cloud solutions and has not undergone significant changes in its business strategy since its inception. In January 2019, Gossamer Threads Inc. was acquired by M/C Partners, although financial details of the acquisition were not disclosed. The founder’s history is not detailed, and there is no mention of subsidiaries or parent companies.


Gossamer Threads specializes in managed hybrid cloud solutions, catering to a diverse clientele, including sectors such as financial services, healthcare, technology, and public services. Their core offerings encompass managed private and public cloud services, cloud migration, and cloud security solutions, all built on VMware technology. The services aim to enhance operational efficiency and ensure compliance with regulatory standards, supporting clients across Canada and in international markets. Gossamer Threads generates revenue through a structured model based on subscriptions for their managed cloud services, including both private and public cloud solutions.


Clients engage in B2B partnerships where comprehensive support for cloud environments is provided, typically under service agreements that may involve fixed monthly fees and usage-based pricing for additional resources. Their flagship offerings, such as managed private cloud services, provide essential infrastructure management and disaster recovery capabilities, although specific pricing plans are not publicly detailed. As of January 2019, following the acquisition by M/C Partners, Gossamer Threads is expected to leverage the resources from this acquisition to further develop its cloud offerings and potentially launch new products aimed at enhancing service efficiency. There are plans to expand into new markets, although specific regions are not disclosed.


The funding received from the acquisition will likely support these growth initiatives.
