We bring specialist businesses together into groups, and back the people who run them.
We think the best small service businesses are run by specialists, and should be.
We invest in the systems and technology that make a good business easier to run, quicker to grow and better to work in.
We think the people who built them should choose what comes next: keep building inside the group, or hand over well.
We are actively looking to partner with businesses in:
Engineering and technical services.
Building systems and controls.
Training and technical education.
Specialist software, information and publishing.
Specialist healthcare services and laboratories.

Customers who come back year after year, because of the people who serve them.
Maintenance, inspection, compliance, training: the things customers cannot put off.
A name in your field or your area that was earned one job at a time.
Someone who has built something good and is starting to think about what comes next.
You keep running your business, take some value off the table now, and own a share of the whole group. When the group grows, you grow with it.
You sell outright. Your team and your name stay, and you step back on a timetable that suits you, with your people and customers in good hands.
We are operators as well as investors. We get involved with systems, hiring and winning bigger work, and stay out of the way where it does not help.
Every deal is shaped around the owner, not a template.
We are building Syskon for the long term, with the patience that takes.
If you own a business that might fit, or you advise owners who are thinking about the next stage, we would like to hear from you. We are happy to work through an owner's adviser. Every conversation is in confidence and without obligation.
