Harris Williams Advises Veson Nautical on its Pending Significant Growth Investment from Francisco Partners

Harris Williams, a global investment bank specializing in M&A advisory services, announces it is advising Veson Nautical (Veson), a portfolio company of Pamlico Capital (Pamlico), on its pending significant growth investment from Francisco Partners. Existing investors Pamlico and founder John Veson remain significant shareholders. Veson is a global market leader in commercial maritime software and data. The transaction is being led by Andy Leed, Thierry Monjauze, Erik Szyndlar, Ryan Costa, and Owen Hughes of the Harris Williams Technology Group and Jason Bass of the firm’s Transportation & Logistics (T&L) Group.

“Over the last decade, we’ve been fortunate to have witnessed the truly impressive growth and trajectory of Veson under founder and CEO John Veson and President and COO Sean Riley’s leadership, and have been honored to have had the opportunity to advise them twice,” said Andy Leed, a managing director at Harris Williams. “Since partnering with Pamlico, Veson has established itself as the clear leader in the commercial maritime software and data market, one of the most attractive and complex areas of the supply chain, and we expect that momentum to continue in partnership with Francisco Partners.”

“Recent global supply chain challenges, particularly in the commercial maritime sector, have underscored the mission-critical nature of integrated, cloud-based software and data solutions like Veson,” said Thierry Monjauze, a managing director at Harris Williams. “As supply chain complexity increases, we expect to see continued strong interest in the sector from both investors and strategic buyers as maritime organizations accelerate their digital transformation initiatives and become more agile to better manage risk.”

Founded to transform the way the maritime world makes decisions, Veson is a global market leader in developing, implementing, and supporting the solutions that propel maritime commerce. Driven by a commitment to continual innovation, a spirit of collaboration, and an enduring focus on client success, Veson is a trusted partner to maritime operations as they navigate evolving business realities and new possibilities in a digital age.
