Buzzacott advised the shareholders of Youmebee Ltd., a Cardiff-based developer of directprint.io and a leader in cloud-native print management on its sale to Toshiba America Business Solutions. This strategic acquisition strengthens Toshiba’s Elevate Sky® platform and accelerates its cloud-first innovation strategy.
Youmebee will join Toshiba, bringing with it a wealth of expertise in SaaS print management, serverless printing, and real-time analytics for cost, usage, and sustainability.
Youmebee Ltd. is a leading UK-based provider of cloud-native print management solutions. Its flagship product, directprint.io (soon to be rebranded as Coreza Print), eliminates print servers, integrates seamlessly with identity providers and productivity suites, and delivers real-time analytics. The company serves a global client base across education, enterprise, and public sector organisations.
Toshiba America Business Solutions delivers print and digital workflow solutions to organisations worldwide. The integration of Youmebee’s technology with Toshiba’s Elevate Sky® platform will enable a more connected, flexible, and sustainable approach for Toshiba’s customers.
Our team secured an offer that recognised the long-term growth potential of Youmebee’s technology, going beyond conventional deal metrics to capture the intangible value created by its founders. Toshiba America Business Solutions proved to be the ideal strategic partner, bringing scale, investment, and alignment with Youmebee’s cloud-first vision.
With stakeholders across the US, UK, and Japan engaged in this cross-border transaction, we achieved strong commercial alignment while navigating complex frameworks and the operational challenges of integrating a founder-led business into a much larger corporate environment.
The transaction team was made up of Matthew Katz, Poppy McMullan, Greg Westcott, and
