Primary Insight
What Stands Out
- Repeated focus on strengthening data platforms: vendor master data management (Supplier.io → TealBook), cloud optimization (DoiT → SELECT), and AI training data services (Teleperformance (TP) → Agents Only).
- Industry-specific analytics remains a consistent theme, including fraud/AML and payments/KYC (Deloitte Canada → Allevar), operator-level foodservice market intelligence (Datassential → Brizo FoodMetrics), and wildfire/forestry risk assessment (EarthDaily Analytics → SkyForest).
- Geographic clustering is visible across Ontario, Quebec, and British Columbia in the most recent events.
- Enterprise and strategic buyers are prominent, alongside research and insights aggregators such as the Rival Group combination with Angus Reid Group.

| Deloitte Canada | Allevar | Fraud/AML, payments & KYC |
| EarthDaily Analytics | SkyForest | Wildfire risk & forestry analytics |
