Private Equity
What sets our family office apart?
We do not blindly invest in companies. We build relationships with like-minded investors, business owners, management teams and entrepreneurs to align interests, evolve businesses and create lasting value.
Patience
Kaulig Capital is a family office, not a private equity fund, so we invest our own capital and have the ability to own an asset indefinitely with a primary focus on growth, not exit or short-term results.
Flexibility
We are not constrained by an investment theme, horizon, or structure, which provides for more flexibility than traditional private equity funds.
Performance
We have a proven track record of building profitable and scalable businesses and can leverage in-house resources with experience in sales, marketing, operations, and manufacturing.
Select Investments
Our investments in industry leading companies were built with shared values, strong partnerships, and passion to evolve and grow.
