AI and Data Services Roll-ups
Insero acquires Cause + Effect Strategy: Insero Advisors, a Rochester, NY accounting-and-advisory firm (backed by PE firm RallyDay Partners, ~160 people), bought Cause + Effect Strategy, a ~33-person data, analytics and AI consultancy in the same city.
Why it matters: the professional-services-meets-AI roll-up in miniature; a legacy accounting firm buying AI capability instead of building it. Expect a lot more!
