Arma Partners advises Graphwise on its sale to Oakley Capital
Arma Partners is pleased to announce that it has acted as exclusive financial advisor to Graphwise, a portfolio company of Integral Capital Group, Portfolion, Carpathian Partners and EBRD, on its sale to Oakley Capital. The transaction is subject to regulatory approval.
Graphwise is a pioneer in knowledge graph and semantic data technologies, which are key enablers of enterprise AI. Graphwise is trusted by more than 200 blue-chip customers globally in regulated and data-intensive sectors such as financial services, life sciences and the public sector.
Graphwise enhances the accuracy, auditability and reliability of customers’ AI capabilities, while significantly reducing token consumption by structuring enterprise data and enriching it with context, meaning and connections to form the “semantic layer.” The company was formed in 2024 through the merger of two pioneers in semantic technologies: Sofia-based Ontotext, and Vienna-based Semantic Web Company, creating one of the largest technology companies in Bulgaria. Since then, Graphwise has delivered organic ARR growth of over 30% a year, driven by AI tailwinds and operational initiatives.
This transaction reinforces Arma Partners’ position as a leading adviser to AI-forward category leaders, its strong position in the Central and Eastern European region, and its exceptional track record of delivering landmark outcomes for high-growth technology businesses.
