Think Learning

Our role

Investec has advised Think Learning on its sale to Totara, a global leader in learning technologies. The transaction marks Totara’s first acquisition since receiving investment from Tenzing a year ago, and sees Think Learning and Chambury Learning joining forces within the Totara group to accelerate growth in the public sector and health and care verticals.

Investec leveraged its deep sector knowledge within the learning technology space, alongside its expertise in advising founder owned and run businesses, to secure the best possible deal for the Think Learning shareholders and set them up for future success in the Totara group.

Tim Newham, Director at Think Learning commented:
“The deal team at Investec has been stand-out throughout the transaction, in terms of their understanding of our business, strategic insights and advice. The whole team was exceptional at coaching us through the process, taking away noise and allowing us to focus on the key commercial points; we honestly couldn’t have done the deal without them.

Investec’s knowledge of the EdTech market is first class and ensured we found the right home for our business and secured the best possible deal. We are really looking forward to being part of the Totara group and contributing to the future growth.”

Scott Williams, Director, M&A Advisory at Investec commented:
“We are very pleased to have supported the Think Learning team on this transaction and to see them join the Totara group as they embark on their next phase of growth. We’re excited to see them thrive within the Totara business as it strengthens its position as a leader in the learning and development technology space.”
