Investment Firms are Set to Acquire Chesterbrook-Based Boomi From Dell in a Deal Valued at $4B
Boomi is set to have new owners.

The definitive agreement for the acquisition, announced in a company blog post back in May, is expected to close by the end of this year. The cash transaction for the deal is valued at $4 billion, the company said.
