Investment Criteria
How we build value
At Blue Sea Capital, our value creation process extends well beyond the capital we invest: it rests on establishing a shared objective with company leadership and supporting them in building great businesses. Entrepreneur-led and company-driven, our approach is not dictated by a top-down, formulaic template. Instead, we seek strategic alignment with management up front, thereby empowering rigorous execution toward a shared vision. Our firm is defined by superior investments and great relationships – not simply “good deals.”
