investments with operational involvement

InSoft Partners specializes in IT businesses with a service business model. We buy a share of the equity, then get involved in business operations, contributing to exponential growth as well as assisting with M&A deals if necessary.

What we do
  • Invest in equity of service IT companies
  • Increase their business valuation
  • Scale the portfolio companies
  • Assist them with M&A deals
Our smart money
We get involved into the operational processes of our portfolio companies to support their growth:
  • strategy creation;
  • business processes optimization;
  • preparing the companies for scaling;
  • TOP team building (mentoring and hiring);
  • M&A (if necessary).
Who is our target
  • A company that is growing, but not fast enough.
  • A company that has been flat for several last years and does not know how to get to the next level.
  • A company that need in structuring and building of business processes for further scaling.
For all these cases, the target companies must have:
  1. Service business model, and
  2. Positive EBITDA, and
  3. Global distribution of their services.
