Equity Partnerships with Operators and Investors
We selectively partner with investors and founders on co-investment opportunities—where operational insight and capital combine to drive long-term value. These partnerships allow aligned stakeholders to accelerate growth, share risk, and build lasting equity in the industrial and manufacturing space.
What We Look For
We’re focused on opportunities where we can bring more than just capital. Ideal fits include:
- Sector: Manufacturing, medtech, engineered products, contract manufacturing, or B2B industrial services
- Stage: Post-revenue, typically $3M–$20M in revenue with clear path to profitability
- Ownership: Founder-owned, sponsor-led, or under-managed platforms seeking growth
- Role: Strategic advisor, board member, or co-investor with operational involvement
- Use of Capital: Growth initiatives, automation investment, add-on integration, or transition support
