Vista Equity Partners, Dispatch Investor
Vista Equity Partners (Vista), a leading global investment firm, became an investor in Dispatch in September 2018. This investment was made out of Vista’s Endeavor Fund, which works with emerging enterprise software companies poised for high growth.
Vista’s investment in Dispatch has helped further the reach of its existing home services and logistics services technologies. In 2019, Dispatch was ranked on the Inc. 5000 list in the top 10% of the fastest-growing companies in America. René Yang Stewart, Senior Managing Director and Co-Head of the Vista Endeavor Fund said of the investment, “We are thrilled to partner with the Dispatch team to help accelerate growth and continue to enhance the value
they bring to home service providers. Dispatch has established a unique position in their ability to connect homeowners, enterprise brands, and service providers, which creates a strong platform that we’re excited to help grow and innovate with the Dispatch team.”
Dispatch Chief Strategy Officer, Avi Goldberg, was enthusiastic about Vista backing the Boston-based technology company. He said, “Home service companies have long struggled to meet customer expectations. Companies like Uber and Amazon have raised the bar even further for how a business should interact with its customers. We started Dispatch to bring the same consumer-first technology to the home service market. We do so by seamlessly connecting brands, service providers, and homeowners together, creating a modern, interactive customer experience. This results in two things: happy homeowners and brands with deep insights into their service delivery networks. We’re excited to continue this mission, and specifically chose to partner with Vista because of their strong track record for growing successful SaaS companies around the world.”
