Summit Partners

Summit Partners is a growth equity firm that invests in rapidly growing companies. Founded in 1984, Summit has raised nearly $15 billion in capital and has provided growth equity, recapitalization and management buyout financing to more than 365 growing companies across a range of industries and geographies. The firm supports outstanding management teams that have self-financed their companies to market leadership.

Summit Partners enhances the value of these companies through infrastructure development, executive and board recruiting, and strategic and operational advice. The firm also brings extensive experience in helping companies navigate the complex process of public offerings or strategic sales and mergers.

Summit Partners can commit from $5 million to more than $500 million per investment from its equity and credit funds. Summit has offices in Boston, Menlo Park, London and Mumbai.
