About August Spark

August Spark is a single family office launched in 2017 by Michael Cassidy and Stephen Wall. Its purpose is to help entrepreneurs, founders, and executives grow services companies in and around technology. The original plan was a portfolio of separate, unrelated businesses, but the strategy has since shifted to center on an eCommerce thesis. In August 2018, August Spark acquired BVA, one of the leading Shopify Plus agencies, and then took on operating roles there. BVA builds and markets digital storefronts (websites) for leading and emerging direct-to-consumer (DTC) brands. The firm later acquired two more companies to strengthen its digital media and eCommerce technical capabilities. It is actively weighing further acquisitions in and around eCommerce, direct-to-consumer (DTC), Shopify, digital media and related segments.
