29North

About 29North

After building and exiting successful businesses, the 29North founders got together to offer like-minded investors something unique – a private investment company capable of backing ambitious private businesses towards success. We’re Not a Private Equity Fund We invest our capital alongside yours. We see you as shareholders and partners. We are a private investment company offering shared ownership with our investors towards returns for everyone. We’re Looking for True Partnerships Having built, sold, and exited successful businesses before, we know what it takes (and how long it takes) to build a great business. We invest in businesses led by ambitious and capable founders and managers who want our help to reach their goals. We Believe in Long-Term Holdings At 29North, we invest with the flexibility to stay long-term holders - because we understand that great businesses aren’t built overnight. We don’t insist on time mandates, so founders can make the decisions that are right for their business in the long run, without the short-term pressure of delivering liquidity to us. We Understand That Transparency Breeds Trust We invest a substantial quantum of our own capital alongside yours, so you can rely on the rigor of our investment processes and the thorough assessment of each investment. A Focus on Minority Investments Unlike many other investors, we prefer to take a minority position, backing founders to continue on the path of growing their business. Investment Criteria ▪ Over AUD$1m EBITDA ▪ Capable and engaged founders and management teams ▪ Clear path for 29North to add value ▪ Identifiable organic and inorganic growth opportunities ▪ Cash generative
