Enterprise AI, data and GenAI acquisition search

Acquisition criteria

What this buyer is looking for.

Five things shape this search. A business does not need to tick every box perfectly to be worth a conversation.

  • Enterprise AI, data or GenAI

    Products or solutions that use AI, data engineering or generative AI to solve real problems for organisations, not consumer apps.

  • A small, capable team

    The buyer values focused teams with the technical depth to keep building. A lean headcount is a strength here, not a gap.

  • Active paying customers

    Customers who pay today. Live commercial relationships matter more than pipeline or pilots on their own.

  • Enterprise or public-sector contracts

    Current work with government, defence, regulated industries or large enterprises, where trust and track record take years to earn.

  • Limited cash burn

    A business that is not dependent on heavy outside funding to keep running. Profitability is welcome but is not a requirement.

  • Close, but not an exact match? Tell us anyway.

What makes a relevant business

Proof the technology already works where it counts.

What tends to make a business stand out for this buyer is proof that the technology is already working inside demanding organisations.

All of these are welcome

  • Product, services or a mix of both
  • SaaS, licence or project-based revenue
  • Profitable or close to it
  • Founder-led or adviser-represented
  • Any country or region

  • A clear enterprise use case

    You can explain, in a sentence, which problem you solve and for whom: document intelligence for a ministry, analytics for a bank, a GenAI assistant inside a large operator.

  • Technical capability you own

    Models, pipelines, tooling or integrations your team built and can keep improving, rather than a thin layer over someone else's product.

  • Contracts in force

    Agreements that are live today, whether licences, services, framework places or multi-year deployments. Renewals and expansions are strong evidence.

  • Customers who are actively using it

    Current usage, recent deliveries or ongoing projects show the relationship is alive, which is what the buyer is really acquiring.

Information to share initially

A short overview is all it takes to start.

A short overview is enough to start. You can stay anonymous, and nothing is shared with the buyer without your agreement.

Useful to include

  • A short description of what the business does
  • Country or region
  • Approximate team size
  • Business model (product, services, licences, projects)
  • The types of customers you serve
  • Whether you have paying customers and active contracts
  • A broad financial overview, with currency and period
  • What you are considering: a sale, partial sale or exploring options

Please keep back for now

  • Customer names or identities
  • Classified or security-restricted information
  • Confidential contract terms or pricing
  • Sensitive documents or attachments

Anything more detailed is shared later, only once you have agreed what can be disclosed.

How it works

You decide what is shared, and when.

Nothing goes to the buyer automatically. Every step after the first happens only if there is potential fit and you are comfortable going further.

  1. 1

    Share an overview

    Send a short, non-confidential summary using the form. Anonymous is fine at this stage.

  2. 2

    Acquiry reviews fit

    We compare it with the buyer's criteria and come back to you, usually with a few questions.

  3. 3

    Agree what can be disclosed

    If there is potential fit, we agree with you what can be shared, and with whom, before anything moves.

  4. 4

    Detailed discussions

    Deeper conversations progress under confidentiality arrangements put in place for that discussion.

Submit an opportunity

Think your business could fit AQ-0461?

Tell us a little about it. A short, non-confidential overview is enough, and you can leave the company name out. We review every submission ourselves and reply directly.

  • Reviewed by Acquiry, never sent to the buyer automatically
  • Anonymous overviews welcome
  • Owners and advisers both welcome
Your role

What you build, for whom, and your business model. No customer names needed.

Customer types

Broad figures are fine. Please include the currency and period, e.g. revenue for FY2025 in USD.

A full sale, a partial sale, or simply exploring options.

Your overview goes to the Acquiry team only, via our secure form provider. It is never forwarded to the buyer without your agreement. By submitting you agree to our Terms of Service.

FAQ

Before you send anything.

Can I submit anonymously?

Yes. Company name and website are optional. A description of the business, its customers and its commercial position is enough for us to judge potential fit.

I am an adviser. Can I introduce a client?

Yes. Choose adviser as your role and describe the business without naming it if you prefer. We are happy to work alongside existing advisers.

What information is most useful at first?

What the business does, who its customers are, whether it has paying customers on current contracts, a rough team size and a broad financial picture with currency and period. Please leave out customer names, classified material and confidential contract terms.

What happens after I submit?

Acquiry reviews your overview against the buyer's criteria and replies to you directly. Nothing goes to the buyer automatically. If there is potential fit, we agree with you what can be shared before any introduction.

Does my business need to be profitable?

No. The buyer is looking for limited cash burn, which means the business should not depend on heavy outside funding. Profitability is welcome but is not a requirement.
