Primary Insight

What Stands Out

  • AI-enabled capabilities are a recurring theme: open-ended text analytics (QuestionPro/Fathom), AI contract lifecycle management for procurement (SOVRA/Edilex), and AI scheduling/optimization (Prometheus/Actenum).
  • Vertical and education software show up repeatedly, including STEM learning (Valsoft/DigitalEd) and K–12 school finance and facilities operations (KEV Group/ebase).
  • Ontario and Quebec feature prominently, with additional activity in Alberta, British Columbia, and New Brunswick.
  • Transactions include both outright acquisitions (e.g., Thoma Bravo/Dayforce; Valsoft/DigitalEd) and structured deal types such as continuation vehicles (Bridge Growth Partners/Solace) and share exchanges (Bluesky Digital Assets/ChessGold).
