Scotto Partners is advising UpSlide on Partech's acquisition of a minority stake in the company

UpSlide, a provider of SaaS solutions for the financial services industry, welcomes Partech, one of the world’s leading private equity firms, as a new minority shareholder. Partech is acquiring a 30% stake in the company.

Founded in 2009, UpSlide is an IT consulting and services firm serving financial institutions that offers a solution for customizing the Microsoft Office suite. This solution automates repetitive, low-value-added tasks and aims to boost employee productivity and standardize company documents. To date, more than 850 teams worldwide have already adopted UpSlide.

As part of this agreement, Omri Benayoun, General Partner, and André François-Poncet, Partner at Partech, will join UpSlide’s board of directors as non-executive directors. For its part, this investment will enable UpSlide to draw on Partech’s expertise to strengthen its presence in key markets, particularly in the United States and the Asia-Pacific region.

This commitment to expansion is part of UpSlide's efforts to build on the valuable relationships it has cultivated with its customers around the world and to strengthen its position as an industry leader.

The partnership also reaffirms Upslide's ongoing commitment to leveraging innovative technologies—including AI—to enhance product excellence and streamline internal operations.

As part of this transaction, Scotto Partners provided advisory services through a team led by Coralie Oger (partner), supported by Alexandre Plas on corporate matters and by Jérôme Commerçon and Mélissa Pouvesle on tax and management package matters.
