Knowledge Solutions

Since 2004, Baird’s Knowledge Solutions team of dedicated investment banking and institutional equity research professionals have been actively covering the sector. Today, our coverage spans the education lifecycle – from early childhood education to professional training and compliance – and reflects experience across a wide range of business models including traditional and online schools, digital content/assessments, professional skills development/CE, and software-based enterprise solutions.

More recently, this investment banking practice’s momentum continues to accelerate. Over the past 24 months, our team closed over 25 transactions, representing over $12.5 billion in total deal volume. More importantly, by creating partnerships with both strategic buyers and financial sponsors, we were able to deliver the best outcomes for our M&A and Capital Markets clients.
