Everything we do is guided by these principles, which define our character and culture; they have been at the core of Equity Savvy Ventures since its inception. They are a fundamental strength of our business.

Equity Savvy invests in high quality businesses across Northern America and the Caribbean with competitive leadership positions and works with their management teams to create sustainable long-term value.

Equity Savvy invests in innovative, high-growth-potential outlier companies. We value sustainable profitable growth, professional governance and a clear plan to exit. We believe in companies that are focused and ambitious with founders that want to scale up a firm of global capabilities and credentials. We know from experience, as fellow entrepreneurs, the discipline it requires to start a business, scale a business and exit a business.

Equity Savvy Ventures takes a long-term perspective and invests in businesses at all stages of development, from founding start-ups and supporting growth in new and developing companies. We play a vital role in helping companies realize their growth potential. We uncover and unlock value by identifying great companies with untapped potential and enhancing their performance. We invest for impact across all of our businesses. From due diligence through exit, our approach has always been to partner with management teams to improve all aspects of a business. We do this because we believe that building better businesses generates lasting value creation.

Equity Savvy Ventures team works closely with management to create a strong operational framework that enables the business to thrive, and providing decisive strategic direction as it grows. Key drivers of outperformance are typically:

INVESTING FOR ORGANIC GROWTH

HOW MANAGEMENT CONSULTANCIES CAN MEET NEW CHALLENGES

The development of repeatable processes, models, and tools serve their objectives including efficiency, scalability, and profitability. Yet these staples of the trade are not sufficient to depend upon in the new market reality. If the incumbent management consulting firms are to unlock the next phase of the evolution of the industry and capture the value, they need a new approach.

TECHNOLOGY-DRIVEN SCALE

As software and technological systems gain new capabilities, employing them in the key tasks of research, analysis, process management, and facilitation can unlock scale with a level of relevance that was not possible earlier. Opening of collaborative possibilities by emerging technologies elevates the value that management consultancies can create and deliver.

REAL-TIME MONITORING

As the startup ecosystem evolves exponentially, the key trends and insights from the market usually have a short window of opportunity. Real-time data monitoring is now a necessity so as to be also to tap these constantly moving opportunities and to gain an all-round perspective on the market, consequently getting and delivering the right insights to clients.

IN-DEPTH INTELLIGENCE

As old forms of ‘knowledge capital’ got commoditised on the internet, new avenues of intelligence-gathering and processing emerged. From machine learning to big data systems, radical insights that are more impactful became the name of the game in business consulting industry. Management consultancies that are not leveraging these new intelligence-systems will fall further behind their peers who do and disruptors will not find it too difficult to steal their business.
