Altimetrik Raises Significant Strategic Investment From TPG

By Amit Chowdhry • Jun 28, 2024

Digital business company Altimetrik announced that it has signed a definitive agreement for TPG to make a majority investment in the company.

This new partnership with TPG is a testament to Altimetrik’s differentiated approach to digital business and track record of strong organic growth. And TPG’s investment, made through its TPG Asia private equity platform, will enhance Altimetrik’s brand and support its goal of reaching $1 billion in annual revenue within the next three years.

Altimetrik established its digital business methodology (DBM) as an invaluable tool for businesses that seek sophisticated solutions to platform modernization, cloud, data, and AI that offer revenue growth and cost reduction. And its customers are served by 6,000+ employees in offices and development centers around the world. Altimetrik will continue to be led by CEO Raj Sundaresan with support from a leadership team including founder and Executive Chairman Raj Vattikuti and President of Digital Business and AI Adam Caplan.

Utilizing TPG’s global operations capabilities and deep sector expertise, the partnership will support Altimetrik’s expansion into new markets and verticals and provide additional growth opportunities for employees, increasing its capacity to deliver digital business services and capabilities. And the company will look to expand into sectors including banking, healthcare, and insurance, where businesses are prioritizing bringing modern cloud and microservices architecture to legacy industry platforms with the goal of centralizing security and compliance to address emerging risks from hackers and data breaches.

The Altimetrik DBM focuses on enterprise business growth and engages business stakeholders at a digital maturity level, prioritizing relevant use cases through a “bite-sized” approach to reduce risk. And this approach is supported by a cloud-based Digital Business Platform (DBP) within the client environment, integrating fully automated engineering environments, collaborative and end-end workflows and a SSOT (single source of truth) for GenAI/AI.

With this methodology and platform driven approach, businesses are empowered to take ownership and create reusable data and innovation assets, and new internal and market-facing platforms to drive business operations optimization and innovation growth.

Jefferies served as exclusive financial advisor to Altimetrik.
