Acquisition Strategy

We know that every business is unique, and we look at businesses holistically. We encourage companies interested in joining our portfolio to connect with us directly so we can best understand you and your business.

  • Permanent Capital

    We buy businesses that we want to own forever. This translates into dedicated and purpose-driven teams continuously contributing to the development of technology in their sector.

  • Niche Software Is All We Do

    For over two decades, the pursuit of mastery in vertical market software has allowed us to become one of the world's foremost software acquirers. This focus has led to a very specific circle of competence that transcends any specific vertical market.

  • Data-Driven Orientation

    Our investment and operational decisions are informed by data and insights drawn from 800+ successful businesses within the broader Constellation Software organization.

  • Autonomously Driven

    Our leaders are closely aligned with the long-term success of their respective business units, allowing them to make the difficult choices that contribute to building a great company. For departing shareholders, this approach allows the organization to thrive, yet maintains what has made the business unique — all the while backed by our expertise, guidance, and permanent capital.

  • Sharing of Best Practices

    We promote a collaborative environment and continuous learning events which gather our software companies' business leaders, department heads, and other stakeholders, creating opportunities for networking and cross-functional learning that result in continuous improvement.
