The Toronto company, led by Michele Romanow and Andrew D’Souza, said the Silicon Valley-based startup will help it connect e-commerce companies in the U.S., U.K. and Canada with firms interested in acquiring them. (The Logic)

Talking point: “We’re excited to offer another opportunity that democratizes growth for entrepreneurs in what has long been a tough and antiquated process,” D’Souza said in a press release. The company also said it will help fund the acquisitions, though it didn’t specify what its involvement in the deals would be. MicroAcquire operates a marketplace where startups can upload information about their businesses and manage private inquiries from potential buyers. Stripe and PayPal are among the marketplace’s users, according to MicroAcquire’s website, which says most deals close within 30 days. The partnership comes as Clearco rolls out more products for founders that enter into its revenue-sharing agreements, such as services that help them connect with investors or grow their company’s valuations.
