Winter and Summer 2027 M&A internship posted in Montreal
Four-month on-site M&A intern terms (January-April or May-August 2027) posted for the Edelweiss Software Group deal team.
Vertical Market Software Acquirer
Montreal buy-and-hold acquirer of vertical market software companies, with deal-team M&A internships for students.
Valsoft is a Montreal-headquartered company, founded in 2015, that acquires vertical market software businesses and holds them: it does not run a fund and has no set exit horizon, so acquired companies stay in its portfolio for the long term. It reports more than 150 companies across 20+ industries and 14+ countries, organized into seven operating groups that each source and close their own acquisitions alongside a corporate M&A team. For Canadian students it is a private-equity-style path rather than a fund job: its M&A internship in Montreal (Winter, Summer and Fall terms) puts interns on live deal teams for sourcing, modelling and diligence. It also has a Toronto office.
