Deal significance: Updater, founded in 2010, is a New York-based start-up that has developed an online platform to coordinate the relocation process for consumers moving into and around the US.

“It is exciting for us to work on these types of transactions, as we're seeing a real upswing in the creative use of technology to address the needs of consumers."
