Our EIS partners receive the firm’s full attention and resources from the outset of their search. For candidates seeking a highly engaged institutional partner throughout their entrepreneurial journey, the EIS program offers a differentiated and hands-on model.
This is a high-conviction partnership designed for individuals who want more than capital—they want a strategic, operational, and long-term partner in building a business.
In addition to the core attributes we seek in all individuals we back, EIS candidates bring several differentiated qualities:
On average, EIS candidates have a minimum of five years of post-MBA managerial P&L responsibility. These individuals have operated as general managers within larger organizations and have demonstrated the ability to own results, lead teams, and execute strategic objectives.
EIS candidates bring credible, domain-level experience within a specific industry vertical. They are not generalists exploring broadly; they are focused operators seeking opportunities within a sector where they possess insight, relationships, and pattern recognition.
Direct people management with hiring and performance responsibility; experience in high-growth or operationally complex environments; exposure to M&A, integrations, or scaling organizations
