Altamont Capital Partners
Founded in 2010, Altamont Capital Partners (“Altamont”) is a private equity firm focused on transforming and scaling lower-middle market companies through significant business-building and value-creation resources. Altamont makes long-term, control investments in sectors where we have deep experience and specialized knowledge, and partners with management teams to execute proven and repeatable platform-building playbooks. Since inception, Altamont has invested in over 45 companies operating across the Industrials, Business Services, Financial Services, and Franchising & Multi-Unit sectors. Altamont currently manages over $4 billion of capital and is headquartered in Palo Alto, California, with additional offices in San Francisco and Austin, Texas.
We match the right talent to the opportunity.
It’s core to our investment philosophy that as a firm and individually, we engage collaboratively with our companies and provide significant support as and when needed. For this reason, the Altamont team is filled with experienced people who are willing and able to roll up their sleeves and support management in the hard work often required to make an investment successful. In addition, we have world-class expert resources in-house and in our network available to further support our companies.
Our approach is differentiated.
Our approach emphasizes business-building and long-term results. As a result, we believe our investment returns are generally driven more by operational and strategic improvements rather than by financial engineering or short-term ‘fix-its.’ During diligence, we work together with management to develop a plan to build the business, set the capital structure, and identify the resources required for success. As that plan is executed, we go all-in to support the success of the company, sharing our experience, providing hands-on assistance, and accessing the talent and resources in our network.
We have considerable experience in our core industry sectors.
We have been investing and working for many years in these sectors, including business services, financial services, industrials, and multi-unit consumer, and have deep industry-specific expertise and networks of relationships. This focus and depth of knowledge allows us to operate as a strategic investor in many areas.
