DLA Piper represented BillingPlatform, an enterprise revenue lifecycle management solutions provider, in securing a significant US$90 million growth equity investment from FTV Capital, a growth equity firm focused on enterprise technology and services, financial services, and payments and transaction processing.

The investment will further BillingPlatform's expansion in a rapidly growing US$10 billion market as organizations increasingly leverage the company's holistic suite of offerings to support new revenue streams and strategies, minimize revenue leakage, and improve customer satisfaction.

In addition to Gilbert (Short Hills), the DLA Piper team included lead associate Dylan Caplan (Philadelphia); partners Scott Cowan (Short Hills), Rita Patel (Washington, DC), and Kurtis Weaver (Boston); and associates Elizabeth Sheeleigh (Short Hills) and Casey Flanagan (Philadelphia).
