DELIVERING VALUE BY BUILDING STRONG AND DURABLE BUSINESSES

We concentrate on investments in small to mid-sized operating companies within our target sectors that offer compelling opportunities to collaborate with management and entrepreneurs to transform each business into a larger, more attractive asset, ultimately providing substantial value for our stakeholders.

Establishing enduring partnerships is fundamental to who we are - patient and long-term oriented private equity investors with a primary belief in generating outsized returns by building strong and distinctive businesses. We believe sustainable long-term equity value is created by forming genuine relationships based on the right underpinnings, shared objectives, and a clear sense of purpose.

OUR NAME REFLECTS OUR CULTURE

Our firm was named after the ancient city-kingdom of Aksum established in the 4th century. The underlying story of this remarkable city and its leaders reflects what our firm represents and our core values: a fundamental belief in the benefits of diverse viewpoints and skillsets; a culture that fosters teamwork and, lasting relationships; a commitment to excellence, integrity, forward-thinking, and entrepreneurialism. These foundational principles are at the heart of our culture and guide everything we do. We aim to invest and develop partnerships in a manner that reflects and fosters these core principles.
