This new acquisition will strengthen VASS's North American expansion started last year as well as increase its capabilities in cloud, data analytics, automation, and user experience design solutions.

“We are excited to join forces with the VASS team, which will allow us to bring a wider array of skill sets and scale to what Copilot offers to its crew, clients, and partners.” said David Tebbi, Co-Founder of Copilot.
Tom Lesnick, Copilot Co-Founder added, “The synergy between Copilot and VASS will help us build next-level digital experiences for our clients. Our partnership instantly transforms Copilot into a global powerhouse in the Salesforce and data ecosystems, capable of servicing teams of all sizes and tech stacks.”
On working with Tequity, Tom and David shared “We hired Tequity based on their deep experience and connections in the Salesforce ecosystem. They definitely fulfilled that promise as they brought us a large number of potential acquirers that we would have never found ourselves. Most importantly, they helped us close with an amazing acquiring partner, VASS. We couldn't be more excited to continue growing Copilot under the Vass brand.”
"We are excited to announce this successful outcome marking Tequity's 23rd Salesforce ecosystem M&A transaction. Looking forward to working with the entire VASS team for more success in the future" said Alex MacKay, President, and Co-Founder, Tequity.
