Fiscalnote Completes Acquisition of Aicel Technologies

FiscalNote, a leading AI-driven enterprise SaaS company that delivers market intelligence and data insights, has closed its previously-announced agreement to acquire Aicel Technologies, a rapidly-growing alternative data company based in Seoul, South Korea. Aicel provides proprietary alpha-capturing datasets and extracts unique value and actionable insights to drive critical and timely business solutions for global financial markets.

“We’re pleased to bring this critical transaction to a close, and welcome Aicel Technologies to the FiscalNote family of world-class products and market-leading brands,” said Tim Hwang, FiscalNote’s Co-founder, Chairman, and CEO. “Aicel will greatly enhance the breadth and scope of the AI data solutions offerings FiscalNote provides on a global scale for customers who seek to leverage data-driven intelligence and insights to power their decision-making processes and reach their business objectives. Aicel also enables FiscalNote to accelerate our market leadership not only in the South Korea marketplace, but the APAC region as a whole – catalyzing increased opportunities for our growth, access to a wider base of customers, and the addition of key engineering, AI, and R&D talent to our ranks.”

The acquisition of Aicel further strengthens FiscalNote’s existing AI data products – such as market leaders FiscalNote AI Solutions, DataHunt, and Predata – and its growth strategy in multiple ways, including by:

  • Expanding FiscalNote’s alternative data sources across the emerging fintech, capital markets, and financial services industries;
  • Deepening FiscalNote’s expertise in sophisticated artificial intelligence, data transformation, data ingestion, and API development for its customers;
  • Providing access to a blue-chip customer base for FiscalNote in a high-growth and increasingly regulated marketplace;
  • Driving new revenue opportunities in South Korea, the Asia-Pacific region, Europe, and the U.S.; and
  • Establishing Seoul as a leading hub for FiscalNote, building upon its existing presence.

Aicel – which doubled its revenue in the past year – will immediately augment FiscalNote’s wide-ranging global coverage for a variety of current and prospective customers who are interested in extracting deep insights attainable only by leveraging advanced AI data technologies. Furthermore, Aicel’s combination with FiscalNote will accelerate the continued expansion of its customer base and revenues through a strong network of established partners, as well as sales and marketing relationships with leading firms.
