Sageview Capital
Sageview Capital provides growth equity and operational support to leading software and technology companies. We back ambitious entrepreneurs and management teams with innovative products to help them scale to industry leaders.
The Founders of Sageview have been investing together for 30+ years (~20 at KKR and 10+ here at Sageview). Together, they have served on 65+ corporate boards across industries and throughout various market cycles. Given this extensive experience, we have the connectivity throughout the Global 2000 to introduce our companies to the customers, executives, and talent required to grow their businesses. We also have the expertise needed to know which operational best practices are right for our companies to grow wisely.
We’re business builders, not deal makers; as active partners, we help our companies create their growth strategy and provide or connect them to the resources to execute against that plan. Since 2008, Sageview has deployed over $1.2 billion across 30 growth capital investments with strong returns and an effectively 0% loss ratio.
We invest in fast-growing and innovative technology companies with established product-market fit, a strong referenceable customer base, and a robust financial profile. We typically invest in companies with greater than $5M of revenue, focusing on B2B software.
