Investment Approach

Our approach is differentiated through our ability to add extensive experience and a proven track record of success to support the continued growth of a business. We are looking for companies ripe for modernization and disruption. Our guiding business principles are to:

 

Find Opportunity

We are looking for companies that have innate value and solid fundamentals (economics, sales, management team, etc) but that have an underlying opportunity to maximize their potential. We believe that with the effective combination of resources, team, and capital, 1+1 can equal 3 and when structured in the right way, a company has the ability to reach new heights and grow to the next level of its journey.

Leverage Experience and Expertise for Exponential Growth

The keys to success in building a business come from a great concept (where an opportunity or need can be addressed), a competent and committed team, and the ability to execute. Our team has built more than 35 companies, raising tens of million’s of dollars with multiple exits providing the necessary experience, expertise, and “scars” to know how to maximize the growth potential of a business. 

 

Strong Stakeholder Focus

It is one of our core beliefs that a strong and concerted focus on maximizing stakeholder value is key in order to achieve success. Whether that stakeholder be an investor, employee, or customer, our team pulls together the right mix of stakeholders and works to ensure we are maximizing the value to and through our stakeholders. This commitment is core to our success model over time.


 

Do Well While Doing Good

Growing a business and generating profit is only as important as the value we add to the market simultaneously. We are committed to serving our employees by creating a diverse and inclusive workforce. Additionally, we operate with integrity to create a reputation for being a leader in excellence, creating culture of community, and working with our partners with integrity.
