Singletrack's acquisition of Mediasterling marks a strategic consolidation in the capital markets technology sector, uniting two complementary players with a shared history of collaboration and customer focus. The combined company positions itself to deliver an industry-leading suite of products that spans AI-enhanced client engagement, seamless third-party integrations, and end-to-end research services.
The partnership dates back to 2012, when the firms jointly developed a cutting-edge investment research platform for a prominent investment bank—a client that continues to rely on their solutions today. Since then, they have expanded shared customer relationships and aligned offerings around delivering measurable value in a highly regulated and fast-changing environment.
The acquisition accelerates Singletrack's roadmap to transform advisory delivery through a fully integrated platform. It responds to growing pressures in capital markets, including increased research output, broader sell-side coverage of buyside and corporate clients, and the need for unified tools that connect research, sales & trading, and corporate access functions.
James Travis, Director at Mediasterling, said: "Singletrack leads the way in capital markets client engagement software and we offer the industry's most flexible and sophisticated research authoring solution. Together, our focus will be to add value for our clients by helping them create and monetise research & analysis through AI-enabled creation, personalised delivery and value measurement."
Brijesh Malkan, CEO of Singletrack, commented: "This transaction strengthens our commitment to the industry to help eliminate fragmented workflows, innovate and lower costs. We are delighted to welcome James and the experienced Mediasterling team to Singletrack. At a time of considerable change, our focus will be on working with our customers and partners to realise the potential of AI to transform how advisory services are produced, delivered and integrated into decision-making."
Phil Cunningham, Managing Director at Accel-KKR, added: "Singletrack's acquisition of Mediasterling marks an exciting step forward in reshaping how capital markets firms operate in the AI era. We are excited to back Singletrack as they expand their platform and deliver even more differentiated value to customers. Bringing together Singletrack's AI-first engagement capabilities with Mediasterling's strength in research content creation creates a uniquely powerful foundation for the next generation of advisory workflows."
Both organizations have committed to a smooth transition, ensuring uninterrupted service for existing customers and partners. The combined strengths in AI analytics, content authoring, and distribution are expected to drive innovation and efficiency across capital markets advisory processes.
