MCA Architects has been acquired by TTSP HWP Group

Irish architecture firm MCA Architects and German data center advisory company TTSP HWP Group have merged to create a fully integrated European group for the design, engineering and project delivery of large and complex data centers. The two firms will operate under a joint leadership structure and align their workforce and strategies to serve hyperscalers and global digital infrastructure clients across Europe.

MCA Architects is an Ireland-based firm specializing in the delivery of architectural solutions across the data center, commercial, hospitality and healthcare sectors, both domestically and across Europe. With expertise spanning multiple sectors, the firm delivers projects of varying scale and complexity, ranging from expansive corporate offices for multinational companies to cutting-edge data centers, healthcare facilities, hotels and mixed-use urban developments.

Headquartered in Frankfurt, TTSP HWP Group is a leading technical advisory firm specializing in end-to-end design and engineering for complex data centers. The group is a portfolio company of Tikehau Capital.

Oaklins’ team in Ireland acted as the exclusive sell-side M&A advisor to the shareholders of MCA in its sale to TTSP HWP. The transaction represented the team’s ninth deal in the data center sector and its fourth professional services transaction in this space. This acquisition highlights the continued strong level of interest and investment in the critical infrastructure sector.
