Marlin Equity Partners announced that it has acquired artificial intelligence-based skills platform People-Analytix. The company, headquartered in Zurich, aims to let companies identify organisational skills gaps and workforce trends. It will be merged with Learning Pool, a Londonderry/Derry, Northern Ireland-headquartered eLearning company that Marlin acquired in June 2021.

“We believe People-Analytix’s AI-based skills platform is highly complementary to Learning Pool’s eLearning offering and significantly enhances our competitive position in a strategic segment of the market,” said Jan-Olivier Fillols, a managing director at Marlin.
