The acquisition marks a definitive exit from ongoing cycles of private equity investment into a permanent position within a public company specializing in the administration of technology-focused businesses. SirsiDynix has seen two rounds of private equity ownership, including Vista Equity Partners (2006-2015) and ICV Partners (2015-2024).
