Vector Capital
Founded in 1997, Vector Capital is a leading middle-market private equity firm specializing in spinouts, buyouts, and recapitalizations of established software and technology businesses. Vector has approximately $4.0 billion of capital under management across several private equity funds and a credit opportunity hedge fund. Vector closed its fifth institutional private equity fund, Vector Capital V, with $1.4B in total commitments in February 2017 and has begun marketing for its sixth institutional private equity fund, Vector Capital VI.
Vector’s private equity team seeks to make both control and minority investments in established technology businesses with enterprise values of $100M to $1B. With a focus on relative value, the typical Vector investment is often characterized by operational transformations or situational complexity in strong end markets. The firm has a highly flexible investing mandate which spans Technology verticals (Software, Hardware, Internet, Industrial, etc.) and investing strategies (Take-Privates / LBOs, Carve-Outs, Growth Equity, PIPEs / Public Stocks, Credit, etc.).
Vector’s team approach to investing is a key ingredient to the firm’s investment strategy. Typically, several members of the Vector team contribute their expertise to analysis of new opportunities and post-investment portfolio company operational involvement. This level of partnership creates close relationships between Vector and its portfolio companies that can be continuously used to address business challenges and identify opportunities for value creation.
