Kennet is an active, long-term manager which works with European and US companies in the expansion stages of their development. The firm works with management teams to build shareholder value through revenue and cash flow growth, providing strategy formulation, business development, executive recruitment and corporate finance initiatives to investee companies. Kennet is typically the lead investor and often the first professional investor in a private company, investing USD 4 to 20 million per company, and can often lead larger investment rounds in syndication with investment partners. They invest in companies in maturing technology or services businesses which are seeking a partner to build long-term shareholder value. Kennet focuses on market opportunities created by technology innovation, seeking to invest in companies with headquarters in Western Europe or the US, with core management teams in place, which address a global opportunity with global ambitions and which have a defensible business model with clear barriers to entry. The firm aims to invest in companies which are mature enough to take advantage of business development introductions, executive recruitment, joint strategy formulation and corporate finance initiatives. They typically invest in businesses that have been self-financed or have taken some funding from professional investors, and also seek to finance private mergers, corporate divestitures or spinouts, and restructuring situations.
