The Deal
- Bought By
- Umar Mir and Kyle Zhao
- Year
- Not published by any primary source
- Two backers print their own 2024 investment years beside the holding company, and neither dates the purchase of its first company in a sentence; a third backer's wall carries no year at all.
- Vehicle
- Union Software Group, a long-term hold backed by Hunter Search Capital, Siwa Capital and Highland Creek Partners
- Kind
- Software
A Canadian provider of bus route planning software for school districts across North America, the first purchase of an operator-led software holding company.
What Happened Next
Still held: one backer's company page calls it the holding company's first acquisition beside its own 2024 investment, a second backer's card calls it the cornerstone acquisition, and a third links the company from its logo wall.
The exit ends of journeys like this one, where the buyer has announced the purchase itself, are on Buyers.
