BLUE PREFERS TO TAKE CONTROLLING EQUITY INTERESTS

How Blue Works

Blue invests in ambitious management teams that are interested in increasing the value of their company. Partnerships are in growing companies with management teams that are forward thinking open to diverse opinions. Blue work alongside to its partners to help get the company to the next phase of growth.

Value can be increased and growth stimulated with a solid strategy. The growth can come organically (through operational improvements), and, at times, by making selective add-on acquisitions. Blue leverages its network to help drive complex strategic decisions and give its partners a competitive advantage.

Through a strong partnership, teams are energized to create growth. Together, we develop strategies to act on that create value.

Blue works with management to maximize the value of the business so that you can have a successful exit or continue on to take the company to its next phase. Exits can include an IPO, an exit to a strategic acquirer, or the sale to a private equity firm.

HOW BLUE INVESTS

Generally, Blue prefers to be an active majority shareholder, but is open to minority stakes – in a sole investor role or in collaboration with partner funds.

Different companies have different needs; Investments are structured creatively with this in mind.

Blue prefers to work with management teams that are interested in retaining a large portion of equity. This structure allows for Blue’s partners to continue to be incentivized to grow the business.
