Houlihan Lokey (NYSE:HLI), the global investment bank, announced today that Ryan Lund has joined the firm’s global Technology Group as a Managing Director.

“Ryan has an outstanding track record in sellside advisory for some of the world’s leading technology companies and private equity firms. His deep expertise in the software domain will only further bolster our best-in-class team, and he will be a tremendous resource for our clients at a time when emerging technological advancements are precipitating rapid changes in software,” said Phil Adams, Managing Director and Head of Global Technology at Houlihan Lokey. “Ryan’s robust domain knowledge and experience in navigating extremely complex transactions in tech will be hugely additive to our team and our clients, and his leadership and client-centric approach represent an excellent cultural fit with Houlihan Lokey. We are thrilled he is joining us.”
