OneTrust to Acquire Ethics & Compliance Leader Convercent

ATLANTA, March 23, 2021 — OneTrust today announced it signed a definitive agreement to acquire Convercent, a provider of ethics and compliance cloud software. The acquisition will build on OneTrust‘s investments in creating technology that brings together privacy, security, data governance, ethics and compliance, GRC, third-party risk, and ESG into a single operational workflow.

Convercent’s technology, 750 customers, 150 employees, and global CONVERGE user community, will see an acceleration in investment while integrating into OneTrust’s platform, global customer base of 8,000 organizations, and more than 1,500 employees across 12 offices.

“Convercent brings innovative ethics and compliance customer programs into the OneTrust platform,” said Kabir Barday, OneTrust CEO and Fellow of Information Privacy (FIP), in a statement.  “The technology fits seamlessly into the OneTrust platform, and our vision to build trust as the technology fabric within an organization. We’re excited to welcome Convercent’s team of experts, customers, and CONVERGE community into the OneTrust family and work together to make trust a competitive advantage.”

“At Convercent, we passionately believe that driving ethics to the center of business can build a better world,” said Patrick Quinlan, CEO, Convercent, in a statement. “Becoming a part of OneTrust is a natural fit. Just as ethics programs must exist within all functions of a business, ethics and compliance programs too are more effective as a part of a broader trust framework. We’re delivering on this greater vision with OneTrust. We’re grateful to the Convercent community of employees, customers, partners, and families, who have worked alongside us, and now as a part of OneTrust we can deliver for our community faster and bolder than ever before.”

In December 2020, OneTrust raised a $300 million Series C funding from TCV, Insight Partners, and Coatue, bringing total funds raised to $710 million at a $5.1 billion valuation. OneTrust’s fast-growing team of 1,500 employees is co-headquartered in Atlanta and London with additional offices in Bangalore, Melbourne, Seattle, San Francisco, New York, São Paulo, Munich, Paris, Hong Kong, and Bangkok.

Financial details of the acquisition were not disclosed, and the transaction is expected to close in April.
