In the newly added role, Swanson’s main mission is to strengthen BitTitan’s market position through strategic investments in the enterprise cloud. He comes to BitTitan after working at investment firm D.A. Davidson & Co. in Seattle, where he advised public and private companies on mergers and acquisitions, capital markets and strategic advisory assignments.

“As BitTitan looks to enhance its global operations, we are seeking investment opportunities in innovative technologies to provide additional support to our customers around the world,” said Barney Silver, BitTitan’s vice president of finance and operations. “Kirk brings a wealth of experience working with both domestic and international companies and overseeing cross-border transactions. He will undoubtedly play an integral role in helping BitTitan identify and pursue key acquisitions to grow our business.”

Specifically, BitTitan is interested in identifying companies with cloud-based SaaS solutions and a strong presence with IT service providers or managed service providers (MSPs). 

“Kirk is well-versed with M&A strategizing and advising organizations large and small on the nuances of mergers and acquisitions,” says Silver. “His expertise will be pivotal in helping BitTitan target the most optimal acquisition opportunities and drive our business growth to enhance the support we provide to our global customers.”
