## History

The company was originally founded as CollabNet in 1999 by [Tim O’Reilly](/source/Tim_O'Reilly), [Brian Behlendorf](/source/Brian_Behlendorf), and Bill Portelli, who also served as the company's [chief executive officer](/source/Chief_executive_officer).[1][2]

In May 2015, Flint Brenton became president and chief executive officer with Portelli remaining on the [board of directors](/source/Board_of_directors).[3][4] The company remains privately owned.[5]

CollabNet merged with VersionOne in 2017, becoming CollabNet VersionOne, and began expanding its enterprise value stream management endeavors.[6]

[TPG Capital](/source/TPG_Capital) acquired CollabNet VersionOne from Vector Capital, announcing investments in the company up to $500 million over the next years.

Previous additions include the 2010 acquisition of Danube Technologies, a company specializing in Agile/Scrum management software tools (including ScrumWorks Pro) and consulting and training services for organizations implementing Agile.[7][8][9] CollabNet also acquired Codesion in 2010.[10][11][12] Codesion specialized in cloud development.[13][14][15]

The company has historically focused on innovating on its own and through partnerships, from early ALM, to solutions[*[buzzword](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Use_plain_English#Buzzwords)*] for government use, to the cloud, to DevOps and Value Stream Management.[16][17][18][19][20][21]

In January 2020, CollabNet VersionOne (CollabNet) and XebiaLabs announced that the two companies had merged.[22] In April of that year, [Arxan](/source/Arxan_Technologies) joined, the merger of the three companies being known by the name [Digital.ai](https://digital.ai).
