Qlik\u00ae<\/sup><\/a>,a global leader in data integration, data quality, analytics, and AI<\/a>, today announced the close of a previously disclosed significant minority investment led by a wholly owned subsidiary of the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA). As part of the transaction, Thoma Bravo, a leading software investment firm, remains Qlik\u2019s majority owner and has made a new equity investment alongside ADIA. A select group of institutional investors have also co-invested. The transaction, originally signed in November 2024, has now received all necessary regulatory approvals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cQlik has consistently executed against one of the most important challenges facing modern enterprises: turning data and AI into real business outcomes,\u201d said Seth Boro, a Managing Partner at Thoma Bravo. \u201cOur continued majority ownership and additional investment reflect our conviction in Qlik\u2019s platform, its performance, and its ability to scale meaningful impact for customers worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEnterprises around the world are moving from experimentation to execution with AI, and that shift is accelerating demand for trusted, scalable solutions,\u201d said Mike Hoffmann, a Partner at Thoma Bravo. \u201cQlik is uniquely positioned to meet this moment\u2014at the intersection of data integration, governance, and analytics\u2014making it a clear fit with our long-term thesis around mission-critical enterprise software. We\u2019re proud of the significant growth Qlik has achieved since we took the company private in 2016 and are excited to continue this momentum with Qlik and ADIA.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Building on its recent acquisition of Upsolver and its advancements in agentic AI solutions and conversational analytics, Qlik continues to expand its unified platform for trusted, scalable AI. As enterprises invest in AI while seeking to lower costs and maintain trust across the AI value chain, Qlik is increasingly the partner of choice\u2014enabling faster execution with open architectures, governed data, and timely insights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
