TRIVEST GROWTH INVESTMENT FUND

For Founders who love what they do — and want to keep doing it.


Some Founders aren’t ready to fully step away from the company they know and love. We get that.

This is exactly why we created TGIF.

Trivest’s non-control fund allowed us to continue doing the things we really enjoyed doing, while receiving the same resources as any Trivest portfolio company.

Founder, Jon-Don

Trivest Growth Investment Fund is a non-control fund with all the same growth resources as Trivest’s control investments. The typical TGIF investment profile is a 10-49% stake in a fast-growing company with $20+ million of revenue and $6+ million of EBITDA.


Founders who partner with TGIF enjoy some unique benefits.

Liquidity

Take some chips off the table and realize some of the value you’ve already created.

Ownership

Retain control of your business and a disproportionate benefit of the upside.

Growth

Access the capital and expertise of a proven growth partner in Trivest.

What do Founders say about Trivest as a growth partner?

“Increased Organic Growth”
“Grew Through Acquisition”
“Accessed New Lines of Credit”
“Built Out Sales & Marketing”
“Enhanced Top Management”
“Professionalized the Business”
“Identified High-Quality Vendors”
“Elevated Profile Among Investors”
“Positioned Us for a Premium Exit”

Jamie and the TGIF team committed to help build out our sales organization, elevate our profile in the investment community, and position us for a premium exit.

And that’s exactly what they did. We saw a 4x increase in our firm value (all through organic growth) during our 3+ years with TGIF.
