(Sharecast News) - Apax Global Alpha said on Wednesday that the Apax X fund, in which it is a limited partner, has signed a definitive agreement to acquire a majority ownership stake in CyberGrants.
The FTSE 250 company said CyberGrants provides software-as-a-service (SaaS) products for corporate social responsibility, employee engagement, and volunteer management.

Its single platform solution enables customers, including more than half of the Fortune 100 companies, to easily scale their CSR programmes and quickly transform grants and giving initiatives into impact that closely aligns with their corporate mission and values," the Apax board said in its statement.

"CyberGrants' network connects 10 million employees and their employers with 650,000 not-for-profit organisations."
