CGE’s Investment
CGE partnered with the management team to support Inspera’s next stage of growth. CGE’s investment enabled Inspera to continue to invest in best-in-class technology and scale the business internationally, whilst maintaining excellent standards of customer service. With support from CGE, Inspera has expanded its global customer base – winning new flagship institutions and deepening relationships with existing ones – and has evolved into a broader digital assessment ecosystem. In July 2023, CGE supported Inspera’s acquisition of CrossPlag (now Inspera Originality), an AI-driven plagiarism detection tool, enhancing its capabilities in academic integrity and reinforcing its position as a comprehensive end-to-end assessment provider.
Inspera’s Purpose
To re-invent educational assessment for the 21st century at a global scale and ensure that no students are left behind.
Partnering with CGE has marked a new chapter in Inspera’s journey – from a leading digital assessment provider to a global platform delivering end-to-end solutions. The firm’s support has been instrumental as we expand our international footprint, strengthen our technology ecosystem, and continue to meet the evolving needs of institutions and learners worldwide. CGE brings both strategic clarity and a collaborative spirit that empowers us to scale with purpose.
