Platform Partners, LLC is a private holding company that makes equity investments in middle market companies with the intent of growing these businesses into industry leaders.  We partner with management teams and entrepreneurs who are committed to building businesses through a combination of organic and acquisition growth.  Platform seeks to invest up to $50 million of equity capital in companies with a history of operating profitability in a variety of industries.

• Recapitalizations of family/entrepreneur-owned companies that provide liquidity while allowing for continuing ownership
• Growth capital to pursue strategic acquisitions or other growth initiatives
• Management-led buyouts of private companies

Platform’s goal is to maximize long term capital appreciation by making concentrated investments and by operating with a “buy and hold” investment strategy.  With this strategy, we actively work with our portfolio companies to create larger and more valuable enterprises over the long-term.  Unlike a traditional private equity fund, Platform is a perpetual investment company with permanent capital and without arbitrary timeframes to exit investments. Our investors consist of successful executives, family offices and select institutions that share our patient approach to building long term value.
