What kind of firm is Weston Presidio Capital?
We’re an investment partnership that invests in later-stage, established, privately-held growth companies. We have $900 million under management [invested plus committed to invest] right now, and we actively pursue investments across a broad range of industries including specialty retailing, manufacturing, health care, and technology. How do early-stage investing firms differ from late-stage? Both types of firms are fast-paced and exciting places to work. Earlier-stage venture capital firms typically have less data to review when making investment decisions. They use more intuition about where an industry is heading rather than historic company performance or the management team’s experience. With late-stage investing, there’s more to analyze, more history, and typically, the management team has more industry-specific experience. Ultimately, the performance of a given company, and thus the returns on the investment, are determined by the strength of the team. Successful venture capital
