Transfigure is an Independent Sponsor with an operations-first focus to Private Equity through strategic capital placement combined with high-caliber execution teams.
Transfigure works alongside founders and executives to implement strategies and change designed to enhance firm value through strategic planning & execution.
It IS personal, not just business.
We believe character matters in every context. We prefer to work with individuals and teams that value relationships and the individual in combination with the business and organizational needs.
Business requires people of all kinds operating in roles that allow them to become their best self. The modern challenge is structuring business systems to align with that objective.
We work alongside founders and executives to implement strategies and change designed to enhance firm value. Our team has direct operational experience in finance, organizational structures, employee alignment, M&A, leadership, strategic development and change management. We help business owners build sustainable competitive advantages by reinforcing timeless disciplines and tactics.
Our founders and advisor network have direct experience establishing, building, and exiting businesses in various middle-market industries. Experience includes transforming businesses on the verge of bankruptcy to all-time record profitability, introducing key leadership strategies to breath new life and vision into stagnant organizations, and developing and executing winning strategies that enhance long-term firm value.
Our founders’ combined experience and network bring an operations-first focus to private equity and direct investment. As business executives in various capacities, our team has experience creating and implementing strategies to return struggling businesses to profitability, integrating operations after mergers and acquisitions, and leading change within organizations to maximize shareholder value.
Transfigure is actively seeking investments. If you have an opportunity that aligns with our Investment Thesis, we would like to connect.
Talk is cheap.
Transfigure is more than just talk. We have a proven track record and experience working with business owners to increase firm value by applying proven strategies and clearly defined objectives.
We seek to be a voice of reason in a sea of chaos and dive into the difficult conversations to face the truth of each situation. Without this brutal honesty, it is impossible to address the underlying core challenges that must be remedied before real progress can be achieved.
Transfigure literally means “Transform to make better.” This is our goal, to make everything we touch better because we participated. If we cannot add value, it is not a fit for us.
In business it is common to find self-absorbed people handicapped by a zero-sum perspective. Not only is this detrimental for these individuals over the long-run, but it severely limits the positive impact they are able to achieve.
We believe there is a better way to operate:
The Transfigure founders come from an operations background.
Our founders grew through the ranks of business starting at the bottom and working their way to key leadership positions through dedication, hard work, and ruthless prioritization. Navigating the unique and challenging operating demands at each level of leadership, our team has direct first-hand experience executing the strategies we advise and recommend.
This experience produced connections with other operators, managers, and owners who also have direct operational business experience. Transfigure leveraged these connections to create a new kind of Advisory Network. Our network is focused on adding value to each relationship with a clearly defined Rising Tide perspective. This network provides operational support, advice, and access to capital for strategies and businesses that align with our Investment Thesis. The Transfigure Advisory Network is built on Trusted Relationships and allows us to bring experience, talent, and perspective that is critical to the success of any business venture.
When you win, we win.
Incentive alignment is one of the most critical factors contributing to business success. Misalignment of motivations leads to self serving and often counter-productive and negative company culture.
Aligning company objectives with individual incentives is achieved by consistent strategic review in combination with unifying company beliefs supported by ensuring everyone on the team maintains a Rising Tide perspective.
We look forward to hearing from you.
We want your trust.
Trusted relationships are the cornerstone of business success. Building this trust comes with time and through working together to achieve mutually beneficial objectives.
We enjoy meeting new and interesting business people and investors who operate with a similar value system. We allocate time specifically toward this purpose and look forward to hearing from you.
