Unlike other Manning + Company practices, our Private Equity and Venture Capital group occupies a unique position both within the PE/VC ecosystem itself, as well as in how we support portfolio companies.
On the ecosystem side, we leverage our expertise to provide focused value-add for search funds and founders specifically in the $14-40 million enterprise value range. Our experience helps them source strategic acquisitions or plan for eventual exits. We assist with fundraising, deal sourcing, due diligence, portfolio management, and planning liquidity events.
Additionally, Manning + Company has a long history of partnering with PE/VC firms themselves to support their talent needs and growth. We act as an extension of their team, providing tailored talent sourcing as they scale.
For portfolio companies, we fuel growth through talent just like our other practices. But our PE/VC practice goes beyond traditional staffing to become deeply embedded strategic partners.
We work closely with deal teams and portfolio company leadership to assess talent needs, build compensation strategies, and recruit specialized executives and operators. With our finger on the pulse of leadership capital around the world, we rapidly deliver talent to drive EBITDA growth.
Our PE/VC practice also provides interim executives, fractional support, and extended workforces to quickly fill portfolio company resource gaps. We build hand-picked leadership squads combining internal hires, on-demand talent, and subject matter experts.
This blended approach gives deal teams unmatched flexibility to deploy the right human capital for each situation. Portfolio companies gain support infrastructure and leadership talent without heavy fixed costs.
So while other Manning + Company practices focus on specific talent verticals, our PE/VC practice works across sectors. We combine ecosystem development, portfolio services, talent solutions, and hands-on expertise - all geared to maximize returns for investors and management teams.
