Hg-backed Iris bolts on Innervision
Hg portfolio company Iris Software has acquired lease management software developer Innervision.
The acquisition is the fourth made by Iris so far in 2019. Under Hg's ownership, Iris is currently following a buy-and-build strategy in both international markets and its domestic market. It most recently acquired Tenzing's FMP Global in August.
Previously a portfolio company of Hg 6, Iris is now owned by Hg Saturn Fund, which closed on £1.5bn in October 2018. The company is also backed by Intermediate Capital Group's ICG Europe Fund VII, which writes equity tickets of €60-600m.
Hg declined to comment.
