OC&C Support August Equity on Investment in Alkimii

We are delighted to congratulate August Equity on its investment in Alkimii, a leading workforce operations and compliance software platform for the hospitality sector. OC&C provided buy-side commercial due diligence to August Equity in support of the transaction.

Alkimii provides a specialist software platform that helps hospitality operators manage their people, property and day-to-day operations more effectively. Trusted by more than 50% of hotel employees in Ireland and serving a blue-chip customer base across the UK and Ireland, the business has established a strong position in a market where operational efficiency, workforce visibility and compliance are increasingly critical.

August Equity’s investment will support Alkimii’s next phase of growth, accelerating investment in its go-to-market strategy and product development while expanding its presence across the UK and Europe. The investment also reflects August’s continued focus on backing high-quality vertical software businesses with strong management teams and significant growth potential.

As part of our support, we assessed Alkimii’s market attractiveness, competitive positioning and growth opportunities, while working with August Equity to develop a value creation plan focused on the strategic initiatives that can underpin the business’s next phase of growth.
