Technology and Software
The private equity industry has been investing more and more in the tech sector as SaaS, enterprise software, and enhanced connectivity have lured ever-increasing amounts of private capital into the sector. SaaS’s subscription-based model has proven a game-changer, providing both a reason to invest in tech and a reason to hold those investments for longer periods of time.
Our experience:
Software and SaaS / Cloud Infrastructure
As software continues its transformation from a product to a service, providers face new operational challenges associated with new business models. We assist a range of investors making technology investments aligning their products and services to operational market needs, optimizing portfolios and cost structures for performance, and Go-To-Market acceleration.
Software solutions have become ubiquitous and have become more “verticalized” to bette answer the needs of certain industry sectors. Kratos Partners works with software and cloud companies in the Healthcare (HealthTech and Pharma Compliance), Marketing (MarTech), Financial (FinTech), and Non-Profit sectors, and across domains such as IT (ITOM/SM), ERP, Cybersecurity and data as a service(DaaS).
IT Services and Distribution
The evolution of applications and infrastructure to Cloud-based services has brought massive downstream implications to the firms who sell, re-sell, deploy, and manage technology for their clients. We help these firms understand and anticipate the pivots they need to make to succeed in this new era by enabling new operating models and supporting business transformation, develop new services and capabilities, and identify and evaluate attractive M & A targets.
Private Equity investment thesis has historically focused on prioritizing growth and revenue expansion.
