About GrowthPal

Founded by Maneesh Bhandari, Shalu Mitruka, and Amaresh Shirsat, GrowthPal assists corporate development teams in pinpointing acquisition targets, including off-market firms, effectively accelerating the transition from strategy formulation to active deal discussions.

Platform Features

Using its unique capabilities, the platform transforms a buyer’s acquisition mandate into a detailed thesis. It diligently scans various signals, such as hiring trends, funding histories, legal filings, and online activity across millions of firms. This process results in a curated shortlist of potential targets that align closely with the mandate, including companies that may not be actively seeking a sale.

Achievements

The brand proudly reports having supported over 42 completed M&A transactions and facilitated more than 210 discussions at the LOI stage across regions including North America, Europe, Asia, and Latin America. Its clientele spans large enterprises, mid-sized organisations, startups, and private equity-backed firms within the IT services, SaaS, fintech, and software-driven sectors.
