The strategy

Strategic capital, not control capital.

We take minority stakes in proven SMEs with the aim of becoming true strategic partners: supporting professionalisation, sharpening governance and accelerating growth, organically and through acquisition.

Founders and management remain in the driving seat. Our role is to bring capital, structure and networks that help a strong business become a market leader.

What our capital supports

  • Minority stakes, typically 20 to 49 percent
  • Buy-and-build strategies and bolt-on acquisitions
  • Succession planning and partial founder liquidity
  • Investment in management, systems and reporting
  • Pre-IPO and exit-readiness preparation
  • Board-level support without operational interference

Professionalise

Governance, financial reporting, pricing discipline and senior hires that prepare a founder-led business for its next chapter.

Accelerate

Capital for organic expansion, new geographies and disciplined M&A, with our team alongside management at every step.

Align

Founders keep the majority and stay invested. We win together, with clear agreed goals and a shared path to value.

Who it suits

Our sweet spot.

  • Established companies with EBITDA of A$2m to A$20m
  • Proven business model and a clear growth runway
  • Founders or management who remain invested
  • Headquartered in Australia, New Zealand or South-East Asia
