Beyond Now secures majority investment from Bregal Milestone to accelerate next phase of growth

Investment will fuel scale-up, AI innovation, and the next generation of ecosystem-based e-commerce.

London, UK – December 10th, 2025 – Beyond Now, a fast-growing AI based ecosystem orchestration and digital platform provider, today announced a majority investment from Bregal Milestone, a leading European software private equity firm. The investment marks a new chapter in Beyond Now’s journey, transitioning from a successful management buyout backed by a group of investors to a scale-up phase supported by a strategic growth partner.

Beyond Now works with some of the world’s largest and most innovative Communication Service Providers (CSPs), including AT&T, Deutsche Telekom, NTT and Verizon. Driven by strong customer demand, Beyond Now is profitable and exceeded 40% growth in ARR in the last twelve-month period.

With Bregal Milestone as its new majority shareholder, Beyond Now is positioned to:

• Accelerate global growth – moving from scale-up into a new level of expansion with a strategic investor that brings proven expertise.
• Fuel innovation – investing in product development, particularly in Agentic AI, to enhance ecosystem orchestration and digital commerce.
• Strengthen customer success – expanding support and resources for operators and enterprises worldwide.
• Leverage synergies– drawing on Bregal Milestone’s network to open doors and accelerate go-to-market opportunities.

Beyond Now was founded on the belief that the future of digital commerce lies in ecosystems - a broader mix of partners, and greater opportunities. We pioneered digital platform business models, with our ecosystem orchestration capabilities and marketplace platform, while continuing to disrupt the traditional BSS market, helping telcos and technology customers create and monetize new partner offerings. With Bregal Milestone, we have found the right partner to accelerate our next phase of growth. The team’s expertise, relationships in the market, cultural alignment, and proven record in helping software companies scale will enable us to invest in innovation, support our customers better, and grow even faster.

Angus Ward, CEO, Beyond Now.

The telecom and enterprise software space is going through a transformative shift, moving away from legacy monolithic systems towards cloud native, modular, and AI-enabled solutions. As customers look for new ways to unlock revenue through B2B and B2B2X marketplaces, we have great confidence in Beyond Now’s portfolio, strategic direction, and management team to capture this market opportunity.

Cyrus Shey, Managing Partner, Bregal Milestone

Since its management buyout, Beyond Now has realized its vision of enabling ecosystem-based business models, and its platform has helped these organizations accelerate digital services innovation and bring new offerings to market faster. Completion of the transaction is subject to customary regulatory conditions and is expected in Q1 2026.
