Navori Labs Acquires Signagelive

Navori Labs has announced its strategic acquisition of Signagelive, marking the beginning of a transformative new chapter for the digital signage software industry.

This combination creates the world's largest independent, channel-only CMS platform provider (by installed base), bringing together two innovation leaders to set new standards and benchmarks in the industry. The new Navori Labs Group will be the industry’s most agile and data-driven software powerhouse - poised to drive the next generation of global signage solutions.

By the end of 2025, the joint organisation will boast more than 45 dedicated developers focused exclusively on delivering scalable, flexible, and data-centric signage technology. Offering an API-first, headless CMS architecture with advanced data integration, AI-powered analytics, and media monetisation capabilities, the new Navori Labs Group is purpose-built for forward-thinking mid-sized to enterprise customers — particularly those operating in dynamic, content-driven environments such as retail media.

Former Signagelive CEO Jason Cremins and CCO Frank Larsen will complement the executive leadership team of the Navori Labs Group around Group CEO Jeffrey Weitzman, contributing their experience to drive the company’s strategic growth. In addition, Signagelive’s long-standing CTO, Marc Benson, will remain a key pillar of the Group’s technology leadership.

"What we've built is far more than the sum of its parts," said Jeff Weitzman. "We've combined deep-rooted expertise, bold vision, and operational excellence into a leadership team that’s truly unmatched in CMS innovation and industry insight."

Navori Labs now operates with a truly global footprint, serving customers with dedicated teams in Lausanne (CH), Cambridge (UK), Montreal (CA), Copenhagen (DK), Mexico City (MX), Dubai (AE), Riyadh (SA), India, Singapore, Hong Kong, Paris, and Australia, among others. The company remains proudly Swiss, retaining its headquarters in Lausanne, while enhancing local support and regional sales presence across continents.

Both Navori Labs and Signagelive share a deep commitment to partner success and customer satisfaction. Their combined cultures are rooted in delivering best-in-class digital signage software, channel-focused service, and long-term value for employees and clients alike.

This acquisition, executed just six months after Navori Labs joined the Maguar Capital portfolio, underscores the company’s focused growth strategy. Looking ahead, the Group will continue to expand both organically and through further M&A -especially in North America and EMEA - while staying true to its partner-first philosophy and software-focused DNA.

On Navori's side, the transaction was advised by PwC (Financial Due Diligence), valantic (Technical Due Diligence), Hogan Lovells and NKF (Legal), Goodwin (Legal Financing), and KPMG (Tax and Structuring). Debt financing for the transaction has been provided by Kartesia.

The transaction has been structured with a split signing and closing.
