SECTORS

TECHNOLOGY SERVICES & OUTSOURCING

Technology Services are complex and multifaceted – they can involve some combination of consulting, support, software and outsourcing services, and product offerings – and that can make them difficult to accurately value and position within the marketplace. Our unique expertise in the world of Technology Services means that we can help you leverage the full value of the intellectual property you’ve developed over the years. Our proprietary methodologies help you answer the big strategic questions your business needs to answer so that buyers are ready to give you everything you’re worth.

We work with innovative firms across Technology Services, particularly firms advising clients in high-demand areas like cloud, mobile, big data and analytics, AI and machine learning. We also work with specialist outsourcing firms, such as customer management providers, who are increasingly leveraging technology-based tools to enhance service provision.

We are delighted with the result that Equiteq allowed us to achieve in our transaction. In a tough market, Equiteq was able to deliver a series of great partner alternatives. The execution team was superb in responding to our needs always putting ISM’s interest first and delivering a great result. I would recommend Equiteq to any ServiceNow partner looking for strategic alternatives or any government focused IT service provider.

Marty B, President and Chief Revenue Officer, ISM
Sold to ASGN Inc.

Equiteq's deep knowledge of the technology sector coupled with their comprehensive support and expertise in transacting in Latin America made them the ideal partner. Their experience and proficiency in structuring transactions exceeded our expectations. Despite the challenges presented by COVID-19, Equiteq guided us through the process seamlessly and delivered an exceptional outcome.

Mauricio M, CEO of Sophos Solutions
Sold to Advent International

We have been working with the Equiteq team for several years. Their contributions throughout the deal process, in particular in highlighting our commercial synergies with Endava and advising during the final stages of the transaction, were instrumental in the achievement of a highly successful outcome.

Calum S, CEO, Intuitus
Sold to Endava PLC

Equiteq has been assisting us for years in our APAC expansion. Their comprehensive support ranges from initial market assessment and research, initial contacts and negotiations, down to the completion of the deal. Their deep understanding of the Salesforce market, together with the right combination of local and regional support, have been instrumental in the success of this project.

Charles W, SVP Alliances & Channels, Salesforce APAC, Viseo
Acquisition of Cludo

The Equiteq team professionally managed expectations and deal flow throughout the entire engagement. Their understanding of the unique dynamics of founder-led companies as well as the rigor and requirements of a PE-investment was instrumental to our preparation and execution of a successful outcome.

Jim K, Executive Vice President, The Shelby Group
Growth investment from Westview Capital Partners

Equiteq helped us identify the optimal transaction outcome for us, as a team. We think Mobeus suits us well, and we’re grateful for their support throughout the process.

Gregory F, Managing Director, Access Partnership
Investment from Mobeus

Equiteq showed commitment and determination throughout a complex transaction process. As a shareholder group, we were pleased to have their input and support.

Miles O, Partner, Connection Capital
Sale of JCRA to Chatham Financial

Equiteq was instrumental in helping WGroup through the maze of the process from day-1 to close. Thanks to everyone on the Equiteq team for your valuable partnership in helping us find the ideal strategic partner.

Jeffrey V, CEO, WGroup
Merger with Wavestone

Equiteq was critical to the success of this transaction. Very simply, if we didn’t engage with Equiteq, we would not have this deal. Navigating M&A isn’t our expertise. It’s theirs, and their team is intelligent, efficient, professional, and has proven indispensable.

Chris W, CEO, LightStream
Sold to ABeam Consulting

Based on their reputation, we entrusted the sale of our business to Equiteq. They did a first-class job of generating competition, guiding us through the various complexities of the transaction process. Their dogged determination, attention to detail and unwavering commitment has enabled us to achieve this tremendous outcome, setting us up for an exciting, successful future with A.T. Kearney.
