Private equity sponsor Hg has agreed to a further investment to cement its majority ownership position in cloud software provider Visma. This equity syndication broadens the shareholder base through a secondary sale, welcoming approximately 20 new institutional backers, including Altaroc, Jane Street, and the NYC Retirement System. Concurrently, the existing investor consortium (comprising ICG, TPG, and Visma's management team) is rolling over capital to reinvest in the platform. As part of the corporate reshuffle, the legacy Hg Genesis 7 fund will fully exit its remaining position in the business

Devolver Digital has completed the 100% acquisition of System Era Softworks, Inc. The transaction involves a multi-part consideration structure including upfront cash and shares, along with deferred and performance-based earn-out components, reflecting the firm's focus on long-term alignment with the target's management team. The acquisition serves as a strategic pivot for Devolver to extend its footprint beyond the traditional premium indie market. By integrating System Era, Devolver gains access to proven "Expandable Game" expertise and proprietary live-operations technology

OptimizeRx agreed to acquire 100% of Medicx Health. The operation will be funded through a combination of existing cash, short-term investments, and proceeds from a new $40 million credit facility provided by Blue Torch Capital. Certain members of Medicx's management, including founder and CEO, committed to reinvesting approximately $10.5 million of their transaction proceeds into OptimizeRx common stock, aligning their interests with the combined entity's success. The strategic rationale centres on creating the most comprehensive healthcare marketing platform in the US by combining OptimizeRx's HCP-focused DAAP platform with Medicx's consumer-focused Micro-Neighborhood® Targeting Platform — thereby addressing both key stakeholders in pharmaceutical marketing (doctors and patients) through a single integrated technology ecosystem

LINK Mobility has executed a strategic divestiture of its Message Broadcast subsidiary to focus on core operational priorities within the European market.

The exit allows the seller to streamline its operational focus toward broader enterprise digital messaging, supported by a strong contract backlog and stable growth profiles in the European market

Conex, the leading French developer of customs and security management software, has opened its capital to 21 Invest France.

The group�s founders, Alban and Bertrand Gruson, are reinvesting significantly to lead an ambitious multi-year growth strategy.

ARCHIMED has successfully completed the take-private acquisition of Instem, delisting the company from the London Stock Exchange (AIM). The transaction was driven by the need to liberate Instem from the short-term pressures of public reporting, allowing for more aggressive investment in long-term R&D. The strategic roadmap focuses on accelerating the adoption of "in silico" methods—using data and AI to model drug effects—which reduces the industry's reliance on animal testing and speeds up time-to-market

Keysight Technologies acquired 100% of ESI Group through a two-stage process. First, it purchased a 50.6% controlling block from the founding Rouvray family and historical shareholders at EUR155 per share. This was followed by a mandatory tender offer for the remaining shares at the same price. By early 2024, Keysight completed the squeeze-out and delisted ESI Group from Euronext Paris. The acquisition accelerates Keysight's strategy to shift its focus "left" into the design phase of the product lifecycle by integrating advanced predictive simulation and virtual prototyping into its design and test portfolio

Nayax Ltd. has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a 100% equity interest in Retail Pro International. The transaction structure dictates an initial cash consideration alongside a deferred earnout mechanism payable over three years in either cash or equity, strategically aligning the post-transaction performance incentives, while a deferred revenue liability adjustment will also be applied to the baseline purchase price consideration. Strategically, the transaction represents a highly value-accretive maneuver designed to meaningfully expand the overarching total addressable market within the global attended retail landscape

Capza invested nearly EUR100M to acquire a 13% stake (via preferred shares) and refinance the group's debt. This transaction allowed the exit of Andera Acto.
