Blackpeak Insights: ANZ Travel, Property and Events booking software market update

Blackpeak are pleased to present a market update on the Travel, Property and Events booking software in ANZ which includes key trends on M&A & financings as well as a market map & profiles of industry participants.

Bookings software refers to businesses whose revenue is ultimately leveraged to the volume of bookings (hotel bookings, activities/ events, property bookings etc.) on their software platform. Vendors have emerged from the slow down experienced during the Covid-19 pandemic and are experiencing a period of rapid growth as leisure and business travel returns to pre-covid levels together with the increased digitisation of workflows across the sector. This should lead to the emergence of a number of scaled platform assets over the next few years.

M&A and financing activity in the sector has also been increasing with recent notable transactions in 2024 including Potentia’s sale of Newbook to Storable & Advent’s acquisition of RMS cloud.

Blackpeak believes that investment activity across the sector in ANZ will remain elevated over the next few years as strategic acquirers and financial sponsors look to deploy capital into fast growing, scaled assets in the region.

Blackpeak Insights: ANZ Edtech market update

Blackpeak are pleased to release a market update on the ANZ EdTech market update which includes key trends on M&A and financings as well as a market map and profiles of participants across early learning, K-12, Higher & Vocational Education and Corporate Learning.

Education Technology is a highly fragmented market in Australia. Despite the emergence of several large, scaled assets, there are a growing number of companies (often smaller but high growth) operating across the broader education technology ecosystem.

Technology adoption across the education sector has been increasing in recent times and we see this trend continuing as schools, educational institutions and corporates alike look to digitise their administration workflows, learning content and assessments.

Blackpeak Insights: ANZ HR Software/ SaaS sector

Blackpeak are pleased to present a market update on the ANZ HR Software sector which includes key trends on M&A and financings as well as a market map on industry participants.

Industry consolidation has been increasing within the HR Software sector in recent years as vendors seek to add scale and product capability to capitalise on a large and growing TAM.

Given its complexity, a payroll offering is increasingly becoming a point of difference amongst vendors with few independent cloud native payroll vendors of scale remaining in the market.
