Deepki, the Paris-based ESG intelligence platform for real estate, has acquired UK-based energy analytics firm Optimise, marking its third acquisition and first outside France. The deal, whose financial terms were not disclosed, strengthens Deepki’s ability to collect and process granular building data as it accelerates international expansion. Founded in 2014 by Vincent Bryant and Emmanuel Blanchet, Deepki had previously acquired French companies GreenFlex and Deepki Data (formerly SmartX) to build out its SaaS offering for real estate investors seeking to monitor and decarbonize portfolios. Optimise, headquartered in London, specializes in real-time energy monitoring and AI-powered analytics for commercial buildings, technologies that will now be integrated into Deepki’s platform. With over 300 clients globally and a €150 million funding round closed in 2021, Deepki targets the growing demand for regulatory compliance and net-zero strategies across Europe and North America. The acquisition bolsters Deepki’s UK presence, a key market with stringent ESG reporting requirements and a high concentration of institutional landlords. Co-founder Vincent Bryant stated that the move aligns with Deepki’s mission to deliver actionable insights from building data at scale, while Optimise’s founder, Dan Hollingworth, highlighted shared vision in automating energy performance analysis. The combined entity employs more than 300 people and manages over 1.5 billion square meters of real estate assets.
