Akamai is making a deal that will take it deeper into Latin America. They have announced an agreement to buy Exceda, the company’s biggest channel partner in Latin America. The company resells Akamai’s portfolio in seven countries, with offices in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Mexico, and bringing that sales talent in-house gives Akamai a much more direct presence throughout the region. Akamai expects the deal to close sometime in Q4 and add some $15M in revenue to their books next year.
