Who are we?

The idea for DealRoom began in a small office in downtown Chicago in 2012. Our founder, Kison, was running a boutique M&A practice that focused on hospitality. He realized the standard technology available for M&A created inefficiencies such as team silos, duplicate work, and version control issues. He knew there had to be a better way and that the industry desperately needed a product purpose-built for M&A optimization. Kison’s goal was to disrupt the M&A process, for good. He saw a need for better technology that connected the entire lifecycle of a deal, from initial pipeline management to diligence to post-merger integration. The solution? DealRoom!
‍
