A DIFFERENT TYPE OF PARTNERSHIP

It's not a “search fund” and it’s not traditional private equity. It’s a collaborative approach to finding and building the right company together.

For each company we invest in, we seek to become:

A long-term steward

A strategic sounding board

An operational partner

A patient investor without artificial deadlines
