Based in London, Abingdon Software Group operates as a diversified software company focused on acquiring and nurturing mission-critical B2B software businesses. Founded in 2022 by Asheque Shams, who serves as the Group CEO after a background at Fidelity and General Atlantic, the company pursues a strategy of 100% acquisition, providing a long-term home for these specialized software providers across Europe and North America.
Abingdon targets businesses with high recurring revenue (over 60%) and provides them with operational support while allowing the original founders to maintain operational latitude. The company has demonstrated a robust acquisition strategy, with notable acquisitions including MY-LEX, a document lifecycle management provider for government bodies, and Cambric Systems, which develops software for electronic patient records. This approach has built a diversified portfolio serving nearly 1,000 public and private sector organizations.
The company's offerings are varied, providing systems of record and automating essential processes for a wide array of industries. This includes ERP software for fitness centers (Sportivity), workforce management for healthcare (Webclock), fiber network mapping for telecoms (Geograph Technologies), and ground handling solutions for aviation (Damarel Systems). This model of acquiring established, specialized software companies enables Abingdon to offer proven, practical solutions tailored to specific vertical markets. The company has secured significant financial backing to fuel its growth, including a Series A round of $24.4 million, with investors like Alumni Ventures, Fuel Ventures, and Calm Ventures.
