Growthink Raises Investment Capital

Growthink announced today that the Company has raised direct investment capital via a Preferred Shares offering.

Targeting early stage enterprises, Growthink continues its decade long leadership at delivering capital and business development solutions to high-growth companies long overlooked by traditional private equity funds and investment banks.

"We’re raising capital because the demand is greater than ever from early stage enterprises needing our expertise to help transform their great potential into market leading companies," said Jay Turo, Growthink’s CEO.

"As importantly, investors are profoundly frustrated by the failure of the public equity markets and are desperately seeking new ideas," Turo said. "As importantly, investors are profoundly frustrated by the failure of the public equity markets and are desperately seeking new ideas. Our methodology of private equity portfolio building has created long-term historical average returns exceeding twenty percent."

Unlike traditional investment banks, which act as agents for individual deals, Growthink has developed a portfolio approach which uses a single investment vehicle to secure multiple positions in promising early stage companies. "Growthink’s unique approach is the best method of reaping the potentially impressive returns associated with private equity investing without the principal risk normally endemic to this investment class," Turo said.

"We’ve seen sustained growth in our Cleantech, Digital Media/Entertainment and Consumer practices," said Emily Burg, Growthink’s Vice President of Strategy. "Even in this uncertain economic climate, we want to make certain that early stage and middle market companies with a unique value proposition can secure funding and build market share."
