Summit Avenue Partners is a Minneapolis-based private equity firm investing the partners’ personal capital into owner-operator, privately held, lower middle-market businesses. Our firm is led by two partners.
We are patient, long-term capital investors with no predetermined holding period and no pressure from institutional investors to monetize our investments. We are experts in helping founders, owners and multigenerational families transition leadership of their businesses and monetize their equity investments.
We provide strategic leadership, growth strategy and equity capital resources to businesses with a strong potential for growth and long-term value creation.
We have experience investing in large businesses (more than $1 billion in revenue) and challenging corporate situations. Today, that expertise benefits companies operating on a smaller scale.
Our firm is led by two partners with over 15 years of experience investing together.
