PE/VC investors

Private Equity (PE) and Venture Capital (VC) investors are the catalysts of innovation and growth in the business world. PE firms primarily target established companies, seeking to optimize operations and unlock value through strategic investments and management expertise. They focus on long-term growth and profitability, often preparing businesses for a future sale or IPO. VC investors, by contrast, are the adventurers of finance, injecting capital into high-potential startups and early-stage companies. They embrace risk for the possibility of outsized returns, often becoming invaluable advisors. Both investor types not only bring capital but also strategic guidance, industry connections, and market insights, propelling their portfolio companies towards success.

Susquehanna Growth Equity Susquehanna Growth Equity
We have the most flexible source of capital you will find anywhere, and we love working with passionate entrepreneurs, founders, and operators. We founded Susquehanna Growth Equity in 2006 to create a different kind of investor: a firm that itself is funded by entrepreneurs who understand the ups-and-downs of operating a business; a firm that has no fixed time horizons and is not subject to the vagaries of the private equity fundraising cycle; a firm that can be flexible in the types of deals it does, the securities it holds, and the risks it takes; and a firm which will help strategically without forcing its operational playbook on its operators. All our capital comes from Susquehanna International Group (SIG), one of the world’s largest privately-held financial services firms. Founded in 1987, SIG has grown to over 1,900 employees across the globe, while continuing to be owned and operated by its founders. We are proud to be a part of one of the biggest bootstrapped, entrepreneurial success stories in history. OUR COMMITMENT We will be engaged, collaborative, and passionate about your business. STRATEGIC GUIDANCE Our experience building large software and information services companies enables us to help our entrepreneurs avoid pitfalls, see around corners, and capitalize on rapidly emerging trends. GROWTH ACCELERATION Our dedicated value creation team will collaborate with you to accelerate your growth, where and how you want to engage. Across go-to-market, M&A, and foundational topics, we will leverage toolkits, benchmarks, trusted partners, and our Susquehanna community to create sustained, tangible impact. RAPID, FLEXIBLE CAPITAL We’ve seen what can happen when investors consume too much of management’s time during a fundraise. Our unique structure means we can move faster than just about any other investor which will let you get back to running your business. ACCESS TO TALENT We have an enormous rolodex of experienced executives and talented operators across the software industry. We will work as hard as you do to convince them to be part of your company’s growth journey. EXIT MANAGEMENT We’ve been through countless strategic sales and IPOs… and we leverage all of that experience to help maximize outcomes when our portfolio companies are ready to exit. Our experience across 50+ portfolio companies informs a broad catalog of best practices to help you accelerate growth.
