Trivest Announces Sale of Unosquare

MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Trivest Partners (“Trivest”), a leading private equity firm focused exclusively on investing in founder and family-owned businesses, has completed the successful sale of its portfolio company Unosquare, LLC (“Unosquare ” or the “Company”) to Ridgemont Equity Partners. Unosquare partnered with Trivest’s non-control fund, Trivest Growth Investment Fund (“TGIF”), in late 2020. Since launching the non-control extension nearly a decade ago, Trivest has completed 27 non-control platform investments with several highly successful exits.

Unosquare is a global delivery engineering partner delivering enterprise solutions with advanced capabilities and strategic positioning for data-intensive industries. Leveraging over 1,000 delivery professionals across the Americas and Europe, Unosquare harnesses the power of Data, AI, and agile innovation to drive transformative outcomes for clients worldwide. Led by CEO Giancarlo Di Vece and a seasoned management team, Unosquare continued its longstanding history of organic growth, bolstered by 3 strategic add-on acquisitions during the Company’s partnership with Trivest.

“As we embark on an exciting new journey, I am filled with gratitude for our transformative partnership with Trivest, their unwavering support and shared vision have been instrumental in our growth over the past years. Together, we doubled our team to over 1,000 professionals and successfully integrated our first three strategic acquisitions. I am deeply thankful to our dedicated employees, whose talent and commitment have driven our success. We look forward to building on this foundation and achieving new heights,” said Giancarlo Di Vece.

“Trivest and Unosquare’s journey together has been a textbook example of staying true to our Firm’s No-Retrade policy and the effective implementation of our Path to 3x growth strategy. We were able to partner with an exceptional team led by Giancarlo and help them bend the growth curve as they pursued continued excellence in their client delivery,” said Jamie Elias, Managing Partner at Trivest.

"Partnering with such a high quality group of people has been a highlight for Trivest. During our time with the business, Unosquare nearly tripled in size, which led to a successful exit materially exceeding our Path to 3x goals. We remain excited about Unosquare’s future trajectory given the organic opportunities and add-on capabilities that exist at the Company today," said Mario R. Masrieh, Managing Director at Trivest.

Clearsight Advisors served as the exclusive financial advisor and Benesch served as legal advisor to both Unosquare and Trivest Growth Investment Fund.
