- Lumi Acquires Assembly Voting
Vespa Capital portfolio company Lumi Global, a global leader in technology-driven meeting solutions for Annual General Meetings, Investor Relations, and Member Meetings, has announced the strategic acquisition of Denmark-based Assembly Voting, a provider of end-to-end verifiable, cloud-based election and voting solutions through its proprietary technology platform, Electa.
This transformative acquisition highlights Lumi Global’s commitment to empowering trusted decisions in meetings and elections worldwide. As live meetings and general assemblies increasingly adopt digital formats, the transition from traditional paper ballots to secure digital voting platforms presents an opportunity for an integrated solution. By integrating Assembly Voting’s advanced end-to-end verifiability technology, Lumi Global strengthens its leadership in secure, transparent, and reliable election processes. Furthermore, Electa’s purpose-built capabilities for scheduled elections and asynchronous voting complement Lumi Global’s solutions, expanding its product portfolio. This collaboration allows the delivery of a unified solution for customers and is exemplified by the two businesses already working together on important pitches.
The acquisition also establishes Lumi Global’s presence in Denmark and Spain, and helps to unlock strategic opportunities across North America, EMEA, and APAC. Additionally, Assembly Voting’s experienced development team enhances Lumi Global’s innovation pipeline, driving collaboration and future growth.
Richard Taylor, CEO of Lumi Global commented, “This acquisition marks a bold step forward for Lumi Global, as we extend our product capabilities beyond the meeting day and into the wider elections market.”
“The integration of Assembly Voting’s innovative technologies with Lumi’s Global platform will unlock new opportunities, ensuring we remain at the forefront of technology-driven meeting, election and voting solutions in Annual General Meetings, Investor Relations, and Member organisation worldwide.”
Jacob Gyldenkaerne, CEO of Assembly Voting added, “We are thrilled to join Lumi Global, a company whose vision and innovative approach align perfectly with ours. This partnership not only expands the reach of our technology but also enhances our ability to serve an even more diverse and global client base with end-to-end verifiable election solutions.”
Luke Burton, Investment Director at Vespa Capital remarked, “We are excited to support the acquisition of Assembly Voting. This strategic move strengthens Lumi’s position as a leader in secure, digital voting solutions, enhancing its capabilities and expanding its global reach. We look forward to working with the Assembly Voting team to make a success of this partnership.”
