Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at ClearCompany?
ClearCompany is not an investment firm. It is an enterprise software company that builds and sells a talent-management platform. Strategic decisions — including the 2020 sale to Gemspring Capital — were led by CEO and co-founder Andre Lavoie, who bootstrapped the business for 16 years. Post-acquisition, capital allocation and M&A strategy are governed by Gemspring Capital, which uses ClearCompany as a platform for add-on acquisitions in HR technology.
How is ClearCompany structured after the Gemspring acquisition?
Gemspring Capital merged ClearCompany with TalentBoard, a talent-analytics firm, in August 2020. The combined entity retained the ClearCompany name and headquarters in Boston. Gemspring positions the company for organic growth and add-on acquisitions, consolidating mid-market HR software providers into a single platform. The founders received liquidity through the transaction while retaining operating leadership.
