Where We Invest

We invest at the intersection of overlooked service companies, underserved markets, and technological lags. While frontier technologies are tested in coastal markets, adoption often lags in traditional industries across secondary regions. We bridge that gap by embedding transformational technology into traditional companies to drive sustainable value creation from within.

B2B Service Companies

We target founder-led and family-owned B2B service businesses in the healthcare, technology and business services sectors with $2 - $10M of EBITDA.

While we take controlling equity positions, we focus on operators who recognize they can go further with us as a partner and ask them to retain a significant portion of rollover equity.

Underserved Markets

Secondary markets are full of durable, relationship-driven businesses that often lack access to innovation capital.

These companies are often led by teams eager for hands-on partners like us who bring more than just money.

Technological Transformation

Every decade, a technological breakthrough like the internet, cloud, or AI transforms how businesses operate. Once de-risked, these technologies create pressure to modernize, forcing traditional companies to either adapt or fall behind.

We invest to accelerate that transformation and capture the value it unlocks.

Most lower-middle market businesses have deep domain expertise and strong customer relationships but lack the technology understanding and capabilities to evolve.
