GOING Ventures, LLC is a principal investing platform with a comprehensive “turn-key” strategy to take advantage of attractive global private equity investment opportunities in the lower-middle market due to the prolonged global financial/credit crisis by buying undervalued businesses and transforming them into high performing, high cash-generating and market leading entities.
With the acquisition of the majority ownership interest in Development II, we changed our approach to investing adopting a consulting-based model to private equity investing: a highly differentiated investment and business acquisition model (coined as “buy and build”) with comprehensive systems and processes that will enable us to consistently source, analyze, close, grow and exit attractive investment opportunities. This approach enables us to partner with management teams to build great businesses and improve their operations.
