Bought By

Year
Not published by any primary source
One backer prints 2013 as its partner-since year and 2015 on its investments list; the index host prints its own 2015 investment and 2018 exit; all are the backers' dates and nothing read states the purchase.

A provider of data analysis and visualization tools sold to the automotive industry.

What Happened Next

One backer names him as exited chief executive beside the fund on its partners page and lists the company among its past investments. The index host carries its own 2015 investment and 2018 exit and names nobody, and what the exit was is on no page read.

The exit ends of journeys like this one, where the buyer has announced the purchase itself, are on Buyers.

Backed by the Same Firms

Endurance Search Partners

Search Fund Partners

Method & Source

This record is double-sourced: it joined when the purchase and, where the company has traded on, the exit could both be read in primary accounts rather than inferred.

These sources name who runs the business and when the firm invested, rather than saying in a sentence that the searchers bought it. One backer names him as exited chief executive beside the fund on its partners page; the index host carries its own 2015 investment and 2018 exit and names nobody. Nothing says he bought it.
