Apax

M&A Engagement Overview

Industry Group: Technology
Area of Focus: Compliance Technology 

Harris Williams advised Apax on their funds' significant growth investment in GAN Integrity. 

GAN is a leading provider of technology that enables proactive, integrated, real-time management and monitoring of third-party and employee risk, ethics, and compliance programs. The company has emerged as a leader in third-party risk management software by providing a fully integrated solution that centralizes compliance processes, risks, and mitigation efforts all in one place. 

We are thrilled to have partnered with Apax on another successful transaction. GAN is known for helping their customers drive significant positive impact, and we look forward to seeing what the company accomplishes in their next stage of growth.

The need for governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) software is rapidly increasing due to the growing complexity and maturity of regulatory compliance and business risk mitigation. Software, like GAN, that allows visibility into the various compliance-related workstreams within one company, is in high demand. 

This investment by Apax aligns with their mission to partner with and support companies with sustainable business practices and will allow GAN to accelerate product development and better serve the growing demands of global brands for risk, ethics, and compliance management software technology.
