We invest creative capital that

the legacy of owners and employees.

8 minutes ∙ No obligation ∙ Confidential ∙ Owners who run the numbers typically find a 7-figure difference between exit paths.

So much of the private capital market has short-term motivations that conflict with the long-term values of owners, employees, and the communities where they live.

 

Perpetuate Capital provides succession and growth capital to small and medium-sized businesses, primarily through ESOP transactions. After decades of experience in the ESOP space, we understand how this transaction structure can provide a market-rate liquidity option for exiting owners while perpetuating the legacy of their business and the future of their employees.

 
 

“Perpetuate had the chance to re-trade the deal, but they didn't. That integrity is rare; and it gave me full confidence that we chose the right partner.”
