About The Fund

Diamond Equity Partners is a private equity firm with over four decades of experience in entrepreneurial ventures and business growth. Their expertise in building businesses from the founding stage through the CEO level, combined with deep industry connections, provides a competitive edge to their portfolio companies. They invest in high-quality growth companies with strong management teams that have evolved beyond startups to revenue-generating phases, demonstrating clear paths to profitability, and establishing defensible market positions. Their investment thesis emphasizes meaningful brand equity and products or services that can secure a leading market stance with sustainable barriers to entry, along with significant prospects for expansion. Diamond Equity Partners specializes in expansion, acquisition, and recapitalization investments, and they are particularly adept at supporting businesses through flexible and adaptable strategies that leverage the changing market dynamics. This approach includes seeking opportunities to vertically integrate businesses both upstream and downstream as well as in adjacent markets. Diamond Equity Partners employs a straightforward, non-bureaucratic approach that allows for swift decision-making and execution. They manage a committed pool of capital, operating similarly to a family office yet with the aggressive pursuit typical of institutional investment firms. Despite being industry-agnostic, their focus areas include Software, IT and TMT, Media, Business Solutions, FinTech and Financial Services, Hardware, Manufacturing, and other varied sectors. Their approach includes preparing for eventual exits, whether through sales, mergers, or strategic partnerships, with the goal of optimizing value for all stakeholders. They pride themselves on their operational and financial resources and their global entrepreneurial relationships that position them to identify and execute unique investment opportunities.
