Grape Up’s Investment Success: Company Sells Addepto to American Firm KMS Technology and Seeks New Acquisition Opportunities
Cracow, December 18, 2025 – Grape Up has announced the sale of its shares in Addepto, a firm specializing in artificial intelligence (AI) and Big Data solutions. The buyer is American company KMS Technology, with support from American private equity fund Sunstone Partners. The transaction marks the culmination of Grape Up’s nearly 5-year investment, during which Addepto achieved an 8-fold increase in revenue, becoming one of the leaders in the AI consulting industry. The parties have not disclosed the transaction value. Grape Up intends to pursue further acquisitions and investments in technology product companies in the growth phase.
Investment Success and Global Recognition
Grape Up invested in Addepto nearly five years ago, recognizing the potential in the emerging market for advanced data analytics and artificial intelligence. Since then, the portfolio company has undergone dynamic growth, increasing its revenue 8-fold while also expanding its portfolio of AI consulting services and proprietary Data & AI products.
Addepto’s expertise has been recognized internationally – the company was featured by Forbes magazine as one of the leading AI consulting firms (“Top AI Consulting Company 2022”).
Securing a strategic investor for Addepto is a natural step supporting the company’s further development and continued international expansion.
“Addepto is an example of a highly successful investment. We supported the company in its development, building structures and competencies, scaling products and services, and acquiring and serving enterprise-class clients. Today, it is a mature Data & AI organization ready for the next stage of growth. For Grape Up, this is a moment opening new investment opportunities – in strategic technology areas not previously served by the company, such as cybersecurity, as well as in selected industry sectors, including medtech. We will primarily be looking for product opportunities.” – says Konrad Siatka, CEO of Grape Up.
Grape Up: Continued Development of Technology Consulting, Sector Specializations, and Products
The sale of shares in Addepto does not signify Grape Up’s withdrawal from the field of artificial intelligence and data analytics. On the contrary, the company will continue to strengthen its own competencies in this area, particularly by developing existing and new products based on GenAI technology.
Grape Up specializes in delivering innovation and implementing new technologies in the automotive, manufacturing, finance, and aviation sectors, focusing particularly on transformation driven by advanced use of data and artificial intelligence, including:
- training and optimization of dedicated GenAI models,
- use of AI in digital products and services,
- modernization of IT systems using AI technology,
- building modern data platforms in an AI-first model,
- software development for complex enterprise environments, particularly in AI scaling and business process automation,
- development of proprietary Databoostr product and G.Tx platform.
Future Plans: New Acquisitions and Scaling
In parallel with organic growth and the development of proprietary products, Grape Up plans further capital investments.
“Our goal is to continue investing in promising product companies in technology areas. We have to offer not only capital, but above all what is hardest to obtain at an early stage – access to a powerful base of enterprise-class clients and know-how that enables dynamic business scaling” – comments Artur Witek, Vice President of Grape Up.
