Managing Partner, Madison Parker Capital
Madison Parker Capital provides liquidity and growth capital to select middle-market enterprises. In addition, the firm seeks to provide attractive exit opportunities for owners and operators of middle-market enterprises and to provide divestiture opportunities for divisions of corporate parent companies that no longer reflect the company's strategic focus. Target investments include management-led buyouts, expansion financings, and recapitalizations. Madison Parker Capital is looking to invest in advanced materials & enabling technologies, business services, consumer products, retail/restaurants and manufacturing companies with $5 to $150 million in revenue, and that operate in well-defined market niches with attractive industry fundamentals. Madison Parker Capital invests in transactions ranging in size from $5 to $75 million.
