Strategic Tech M&A for growth

Pursuing M&A to Accelerate Growth

Tech company shareholders and boards need to consistently evaluate how to accelerate the growth of their companies. In many cases the shareholders recognize that it makes sense to explore acquisition by a much larger growth-focused firm that can provide the resources needed to more rapidly increase sales, grow market share, and perhaps more expertly guide the organization through to each new threshold. In some cases, shareholders wish to retain some equity in the organization with the view to a second, larger transaction down the road; in others, there is a preference to exit after the transition.

We are experts at helping companies to navigate this process successfully.


Our Objectives

Finding the company that will best accelerate your future growth while ensuring the ongoing success of your customers and employees is often a lengthy and resource-intensive process. Tequity’s team has developed a proven technology-driven engagement workflow to help companies achieve their objectives effectively, efficiently, and confidentially.

  • Minimize the disruption to your organization by limiting shareholder involvement to qualified target buyers only.
  • Manage and organize the approach to targets as well as the information dissemination and analysis phases.
  • Uncover opportunities for consideration that are not being broadly marketed.

"Working with Tequity was a great experience - they know the Supply Chain ERP market and who the potential buyers are here and are experienced in cross-border transactions. We always felt they had our best interests first and foremost, and they continued to work with us until finding the buyer and deal that we were happy with. Their transparent and professional approach helped to keep things moving forward until the day we closed. I truly appreciate Wilf’s integrity and professionalism throughout the process.  I'd recommend Wilf, Diane, and the team at Tequity to any founder considering an M&A process” said Mark Canes, President & CEO of Blue Link.

“Once the decision to sell Matrix had been made, after a deal of research I decided that Tequity was the best for the job. If you have ever sold a business, you will know it can be extremely stressful, but Paul Bennett and the Tequity team stepped up to the plate and shouldered a considerable amount of the burden. Their deep understanding of Matrix and our market led to them finding top notch prospective buyers. Paul and the Tequity team are the ultimate professionals, and I will forever be in their debt.”

I deeply trust Tequity and hope to work with them next time around!

"Simply put, our deal would not have closed without Tequity. Not only did Tequity bring the opportunity to us, their keen sense of the SaaS and Salesforce market, together with their upfront dedication to understanding who we were as a business, led them to efficiently and effectively negotiate on our behalf for the best possible outcome. Our business is now perfectly poised for growth without sacrificing our culture and values. Our team is engaged and excited about the transaction, and Tequity guided us through each stage of the process to ensure that was the case. Alex was a pleasure to work with as we got the ball rolling, and Anish was the steady driving force that helped us find a path through to close, providing invaluable expertise, advice, and the occasional pep talk when things were tough. I deeply trust Tequity and hope to work with them next time around"

"We hired Tequity based on their deep experience and connections in the Salesforce ecosystem. They definitely fulfilled that promise as they brought us a large number of potential acquirers that we would have never found ourselves. Most importantly, they helped us close with an amazing acquiring partner, Vass. We couldn't be more excited to continue growing Copilot under the Vass brand."

After extensive due diligence to identify the proper investment banker, we concluded Tequity was the best team for our needs.

After extensive due diligence to identify the proper investment banker, we concluded Tequity was the best team for our needs. We selected Wilf and Diane for their M&A knowledge, deep investor rolodex, technology niche market expertise, seller sole representation, and solid testimonials.

During our transaction and its tense moments, Wilf was calm, poised and well-prepared. He provided valuable input, shared prior transaction experience notes, and access to their solid legal and financial advisors network.

We set very granular requirements for any acquirer / partnership to be considered to include expansive service offering for clients, better career options for our employees / family members, a great place to work, and fair market evaluation. Tequity team delivered on every front, it is true you are as good as your team.

A job well done!

Thank you Tequity for your guidance and partnership the last several years, we really appreciate it!

We have had the pleasure of working with Tequity for the last several years. During our initial encounter, they had the foresight to recommend bringing our teams together which resulted in our merger in 2020. As a result of our immediate success as a combined organization, Alex and Anish quickly indicated a strong interest in the market for our firm. We decided to field offers and to our great surprise there were several, very compelling alternatives. We ultimately decided to accept the Apps Associates offer as we felt their values and culture most closely aligned with ours, while providing employees and customers with tremendous opportunities. Throughout the process Alex and Anish were fantastic – professional, transparent, and very knowledgeable on the Salesforce M&A market. Thank you Tequity for your guidance and partnership the last several years, we really appreciate it.

We always felt Anish and Diane put our best interests first, and the support that Anish provided to us throughout the process was invaluable. They are a great group of partners to work with and know the acquisition process well.
