Team of Experts

Hear From Our Partners1

Partnering with Source Capital offered our leadership team the chance to monetize a portion of the company we built while keeping a material ownership stake as we geared up for the company's next phase of growth. It also positioned us to pursue new expansion opportunities we couldn't execute on our own - most notably add-on acquisitions with highly complementary companies.

Chris Koczaja

CEO of LightWave Solar

I have had the opportunity to partner with and serve as CEO for two Source Capital portfolio companies. Source consistently provided me and my team with helpful insight and guidance on both strategic opportunities and challenges. Their dedication to improving operations, systems and processes, encouraging innovation and providing capital for growth made a real difference in the successful outcomes for both businesses.

Dave Sholtis

Former CEO of M&M Carnot & Penray

Source's growth capital investment in Amplifi has enabled our team to accelerate organic and M&A growth initiatives. Their flexible approach allowed us to quickly capitalize on the rapidly growing data services market and continue our global expansion. Our team has enjoyed the collaborative approach with Source, and we are appreciative of their strategic support.
