The firm pursues going-private transactions in public companies that are either subscale for the public markets or whose management teams have a business plan that is most appropriately executed as a private company. It primarily invests in the technology industry including software, Internet technologies, and IT-enabled services as well as in various sub-segments including enterprise and infrastructure software, vertical market application software, technical software, networking software, enterprise computing, and data storage, storage networking, data communications, telecommunications equipment, Internet services, business process outsourcing, supply chain, and professional IT services.
