About

Banyan Software acquires and operates vertical market software companies with a permanent-ownership model. Founded in 2016, the company commits to holding businesses indefinitely rather than reselling them, creating a stable environment for long-term growth.

The group operates through decentralized management, with teams closest to customers and employees making day-to-day operating decisions. This structure prioritises the health of individual businesses over short-term financial returns. Banyan maintains offices across North America, the United Kingdom, Europe, and Australia, balancing global reach with local market presence.

Portfolio companies benefit from access to shared resources, technical expertise, and a network of software leaders. The ownership structure explicitly aims to preserve company legacies and enable management succession, whether through continuity of existing leadership or transition to new leaders. Personal relationships and deep customer knowledge remain central to how acquired businesses operate.
