Inverness Graham, a Philadelphia-based buyout firm focused on acquiring innovative companies where technology is transforming traditional industry, announced today that its marketing data and analytics company, Alliant, has acquired AnalyticsIQ. An innovator in predictive analytics and people-based marketing data, AnalyticsIQ blends cognitive psychology with statistical analysis to enhance behavioral targeting and drive marketing performance. The company utilizes survey-based methodology and machine learning to model consumer behavior and intent, enabling advertisers to reach high-value audiences and enhance campaign outcomes through more effective targeting and personalization. The acquisition of AnalyticsIQ strengthens the combined company’s market position and establishes it as a top-tier provider of comprehensive data-driven marketing solutions.

“AnalyticsIQ’s innovative data solutions strongly complement Alliant’s strengths in cooperative data and analytics,” said Michael Morrissey, Managing Principal at Inverness Graham. “Combining Alliant’s proprietary transaction data with AnalyticsIQ’s predictive modeling and digital integrations enhances our collective ability to deliver high-performing, insight-driven audiences across both traditional and emerging marketing channels. Together, the combined business enables a differentiated, data-rich platform with more customer applications and deeper market reach. We look forward to supporting Alliant and AnalyticsIQ’s next phase of growth together.”

As part of the acquisition, Scarlett Shipp, the current Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) of AnalyticsIQ, has been appointed the new CEO of the combined business. JoAnne Monfradi Dunn, Alliant’s founder and CEO, has announced her retirement from day-to-day operations and will assume an active Board seat to guide the transition and continue providing strategic leadership at the Board level.

“Our team has spent years building predictive data that helps brands not just understand what people do—but why they do it,” said Scarlett Shipp. “Joining forces with Alliant enables us to scale that mission and bring even more powerful insights to clients across channels. Together, we’re building on our industry leadership to create a data company that raises the bar—delivering an unprecedented combination of differentiated data, trust, and results.”

Inverness Graham and Alliant are actively seeking further acquisitions and strategic partnerships with innovative companies that provide high-quality marketing data, analytics and technology.

Faegre Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP served as legal counsel to Inverness Graham. Stephens Inc. served as exclusive financial advisor to AnalyticsIQ. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
