Why Solen?
Long-term,
sustainable growth
We aim to run each business as if it were our family's only asset for the coming decades. We are not pressured by exit timelines as we are a permanent capital acquisition vehicle, partnering alongside founders building resilient software businesses.
We follow one simple equation:
Personal Growth + Business Growth = Team Elevation.
How we amplify your company
Lifelong Partnerships
As a holding company with an indefinite time horizon, we have no intention of selling your business. When we invest in a company, we go ‘all in’ for the long haul, building deep roots with the people that define it.
Decentralized Operations
Your business represents a lifetime of effort, and we are committed to preserving the values that made it special in the first place. We offer continuity and stability to your employees and customers, while building on your legacy.
Value Preservation
We aim to protect and cultivate entrepreneurship by keeping decision-making closest to your customers and team. Accordingly, we operate with a decentralized model that empowers your team with autonomy and authority over the day-to-day.
Operating with us
Product
We maintain exceptionally high standards for customer service and prioritize retention. We lead with authenticity, transparency, and humility, and hold our reputations dear.
Talent
We are a small team of experienced entrepreneurs and investors oriented around the long-term. We know what it’s like to run and grow a business because we’ve done it. We offer hands-on support to attract, develop, and retain the best talent.
Sales & Marketing
We collaborate with management on sales and go to market strategy for outbound sales using the “Solen Sales Mastermind” and 99-point checklist post acquisition.
Operations
We partner with companies with great management and industry expertise. We trust our leaders and empower each to take ownership of their domain. We invest in your existing team and are committed to fostering a remarkable workplace.
Finance & Back Office
We centralize all the boring finance and HR. Allowing you to spend less time chasing down your accounts receivables and more time working on your magic. We take all the tedious but necessary tasks off your plate so you can focus on needle moving activities.
"From early in the process it became clear that we were dealing with people of integrity, and who's practical approach was a good for our culture and audience. But it has proven to be a win for those of us who originally founded the company; for all of our employees and for our customers."
