In December 2019, Accelya was acquired by Vista Equity Partners (Vista) a leading global investment firm that exclusively invests in enterprise software, data and technology-enabled businesses.
Prior to Vista’s investment in Accelya, the company had a strong and proven track record within the global airline industry and a decades-long history of delivering innovative change. Based in Barcelona, Accelya was formerly known as ADP Clearing, part of Automatic Data Processing (ADP), before becoming Accelya in 2019.
In July 2020, backed by Vista, Accelya acquired Farelogix. The airline retail software solutions platform further diversified Accelya’s offerings of industry-centered merchandising and distribution for airline customers and helped to further cement the company as a leading solutions and service provider to the global airline industry.
Accelya is dedicated to finding innovative solutions to critical business problems. Vista champions this mindset, empowering its portfolio companies to stay ahead in the digital economy through investment in research and development to support product innovation and providing other tools, expertise and capital for sustainable growth.
Founded in 2000 by business leader, dealmaker and philanthropist Robert F. Smith, Vista invests across private equity, permanent capital, credit and public equity strategies. Vista’s portfolio companies receive operational guidance and support to accelerate their corporate maturity and achieve profitable growth. Vista’s differentiated approach to investment prioritizes enduring market value creation for the benefit of Vista’s portfolio companies and its global ecosystem of investors, customers and employees.
