We’re a small, confidential group of like-minded individuals who enjoy helping people find their dreams and succeed.

We invest in a wide range of sectors, but we concentrate primarily on businesses and services related to education. This is a very broad group of vertical business spaces. We love education not only because it’s very profitable but because it has significance, as it helps people enjoy better lives.

Our core business springs from our unique ability to create strategies based on our confidential relationships with select entrepreneurial owners of businesses or CEO’s of large companies. Our core competency: the creative ability to unleash a company’s capacity. Our strategies have rapidly made hundreds of millions of dollars for our clients and our co-investors.

Our services are as follows:

• We are Principal Investors: We have $100 million per year of our own cash to invest in business leaders we desire to help make successful.
• We provide Merchant Banking: We serve as catalysts to help entrepreneurial leaders connect with our co-investors.
• We offer Business Development: Based on years of experience building our own successful companies, we create growth strategies, then recruit the human capital to fully deploy the strategy. We emphasize marketing and sales, but we see as most important the selection of the right people. We like to “bet on the jockey more than the horse.” To facilitate rapid value creation, we offer a unique global network of high-value relationships.

The unique work of SignificantPartners™ can prove invaluable to the sale, merger, or growth of a company. The entrepreneur-owner of CEO still holds the reins, but we bring to the table a wide range of proven expertise, a broad history of success, an array of high-value contacts, and a creative approach to unlocking growth capability.

For years, we’ve been focusing on quietly and effectively creating partnerships, joint ventures, affiliations, and strategic alliances for the entrepreneur-owners and CEOs of select companies both domestic and international.

References? Sorry, no. We work exclusively in total confidence.

Compensation? We are truly success-based-compensated. We enjoy making our money on the delta of gain that we help create.

We come alongside an entrepreneurial business owner or CEO to help them identify, then achieve their goals quickly, creatively, and cost-effectively — either to secure long-term growth or to position the company for a sale to our group or our boutique private equity circle with whom we always co-invest.

We work confidentially, and usually are requested to maneuver outside the normal management structure until the appropriate time (a real benefit to some boards, owners, and CEOs).
