For Founders

The Founders and management teams who partner with Tritium often share many of the following thoughts and motivations:

I would like to “take some chips off the table,” but it’s too early to cash out entirely and I’m too young to retire

You may be interested in taking some of your hard-earned value off the table to secure you and your family's future, but you’re also not ready to step away and would like to retain meaningful ownership for the larger outcome ahead. We are flexible on the amount of ownership and role you would like to retain, as well as the amount of capital to be used for growth. We will partner with you to take your company to the next stage in its growth and want to help realize the full potential of what you’ve created.

I have bootstrapped my business so far and would like to invest more for growth, but I’m worried about losing control of my business.

We are flexible on the amount of ownership and funds used to accelerate growth. We would focus on aligning goals with you to be efficient with capital and achieve success together.

I think the timing is right to provide an exit path for co-founders or shareholders who are not as active in the business

We can help you buy out your early investors and/or pay off debt, so you can get a fresh start and simplify the decision-making for your business.

I need help recruiting A+ talent and building a strong board with relevant experience and helpful contacts

With a full-time dedicated Talent Partner, and a strong network of advisors, we can help you strengthen your team and gain access to a management-friendly team of advisors that can help you grow your business and access valuable networking contacts and resources.

I believe an acquisition opportunity could accelerate my growth, but I’ve never done anything like that before

If you've had your eye on acquiring another business, product, or service to accelerate growth or increase market share, we can help you with both the capital and structure to do so, and will also provide the team to help you through the M&A process.

We've proven our unit economics, but need capital to gain market share and stake out a leadership position

We know timing can make a meaningful difference when pursuing market leadership, and we will team up with you to help reach your goals while striking the right balance of additional financial resources with the equity position that you would like to retain

I value outside guidance, but I don’t want a partner who micromanages or pushes a one-size-fits-all playbook on me

We don’t bring a one-size-fits-all playbook – we spend a significant amount of time creating a tailored and strategic value creation plan with you to help you accomplish your vision for your company.

I want a growth partner who truly understands my business and can help me take it to its next stage of growth

We partner with companies where we believe we can uniquely add value to accelerate growth and profitability, focusing on companies where our experience and network of executives and advisors can have a tremendous impact.

Testimonials and endorsements reflect Tritium's and portfolio company management's opinions and beliefs regarding the company and the investment. Such opinions and beliefs are subjective, do not represent a complete assessment of the company, the market or Tritium's overall investment performance and cannot be independently verified. Such statements are being offered as references for purposes of demonstrating the benefits of working with the Tritium team and not on the basis of being an investor in a portfolio company or, if applicable, a Tritium fund. Portfolio company executives receive/received a salary and economics from the portfolio company. No executives were paid for their testimonial or endorsement. There is a conflict of interest in these unpaid testimonials and endorsements in that all speakers stand to benefit from Tritium's success and for the portfolio company executives especially, their company is owned or partially owned by a Tritium fund.
