TZP Group Exits Investment in AtData

TZP Group announced the sale of AtData to Experian, a global data and technology company, realizing its investment in the email address solutions provider.

AtData was established in 2021 through a merger of FreshAddress (founded 1999) and TowerData (founded 2001). The combined entity operates as a leading email-based identity intelligence platform serving enterprise clients across financial services, technology, and consumer sectors.

The company maintains a proprietary database containing over 10 billion email profiles and processes billions of behavioral signals monthly. Its core offerings include identity matching and enrichment, email verification, fraud detection and prevention, and consumer insights solutions.

Dan Gaspar, TZP Partner, noted: "TZP has thoroughly enjoyed partnering with the AtData management team to drive strong organic growth and expand the Company's product capabilities, particularly through the development and scaling of its fraud prevention solutions."

CEO Tom Burke added: "TZP Group has been an instrumental partner in helping us sharpen our strategic focus, enhance our product offerings, and strengthen the operational foundation."

Dan Gaspar and Brett Rosenbluth led the deal for TZP. AtData's advisors included Canaccord Genuity (led by Sanjay Chadda, Lexia Schwartz, and Harlan Swift) and Winston & Strawn as legal counsel.

TZP Group manages approximately $2 billion across its fund family, focusing on control and growth equity investments in business and consumer companies. Founded in 2007, the firm targets closely-held private companies where owners seek to retain significant stakes while partnering with investors offering operational and financial expertise.
