Denominator acquires Equileap, creating a global leader in Human Capital Data
Denominator acquires Equileap
In today's post-industrial economy where intangibles drive corporate value, human capital is the most important asset. CEOs routinely call their employees their greatest strength, yet many investors have more mature frameworks for integrating climate and biodiversity in their investment decisions than for assessing human capital across portfolio companies and supply chains. This shift is now possible thanks to the scale and technical infrastructure enabled by the acquisition.
The combined offering is anchored on three core strengths:
Data depth & global scale - Integrating Equileap's leading gender dataset into Denominator's system expands the former's reach from 6K to 5.5 million public and private companies worldwide, offering unparalleled visibility into diversity, labor practices, turnover, and sentiment metrics.
Transparency & methodological integrity - Equileap's research framework remains intact, ensuring consistency and data integrity. Clients benefit from the same transparency and greater flexibility, retaining full visibility into every data point and scoring factor, with the added ability to customize models using standardized human capital metrics.
AI-enabled insights & strategic application - Denominator's technology closes data gaps, transforming human capital analysis from a reporting exercise into a strategic lever across portfolios, procurement, due diligence, and corporate benchmarking.
Anders Rodenberg, CEO of Denominator, commented:
"This acquisition marks a pivotal moment. In the age of AI, access to specialized, high‐integrity data is critical. Integrating Equileap's leading gender equality dataset strengthens Denominator's ability to deliver smarter, actionable human capital insights - empowering investors to align capital with both values and returns."
Diana van Maasdijk, CEO of Equileap, added:
"Equileap was founded to close the workplace equality gap - for everyone, everywhere. By joining Denominator and their AI infrastructure, we will accelerate that vision, broadening our reach and deepening our impact where it matters most."
Diana van Maasdijk, CEO and co-founder of Equileap, will also assume the role of Chief Commercial Officer of Denominator, bringing her leadership and market expertise to the global growth of both platforms. Lotte van der Stelt, currently COO of Equileap, will additionally take on the role of Chief Operating Officer of Denominator, overseeing operations across both companies and ensuring continuity and alignment. Clients will continue working with the same team - now empowered by greater scale, deeper data, and enhanced technology through Equileap's integration into Denominator.
Taking Human Capital Intelligence to a global scale
With this acquisition, Denominator and Equileap are setting a new global benchmark for human capital data. Denominator's platform is on track to reach 10 million public and private companies by year-end. Together, they offer over 1,800 unique data points - from employee turnover and sentiment to labor practices, human rights allegations, governance bodies, leadership, organization and workforce demographics - delivering unmatched transparency into how companies manage people. Increasingly recognized as material to financial performance, this data gives investors and corporations a clearer view of how human capital drives long-term value and resilience. These insights now extend beyond investment management into supply chain risk, corporate benchmarking, and ESG due diligence - helping investors turn human capital into a strategic advantage.
A simple truth, people are the common denominator.
