Strengthening our leadership.

For most of 2011, our team at Bolder Capital has been strengthening strategy areas in which we foresee worthwhile future investment focus. We have been placing best-in-class Operating Executives at the helm of these strategies.

While we look to back experienced and capable management teams, a critical catalyst to Bolder’s investment strategy is its Operations Initiative, which includes substantial guidance from experienced industry executives. Highly experienced senior executives serve as Executive Advisors for all buy-and-build strategies. These Operating Executives bring a wealth of professional experience to each build-up strategy and provide expert strategic guidance to all of our partners as they execute on add-on acquisitions and new organic growth initiatives.

Below are a just a few of the industries in which we’re fluent, targeted and stocked with leaders:

Industrial Water Treatment – Mike Reardon, Triwater Holdings

Specialty/Gourmet Foods – Phil Rooney, Bolder Food Group

Manufacturing and Specialty Industrial Services – Jim Rogers, Industrial Service Solutions

Sensors and Instrumentation – Gerry Posner, Bolder Sensors Group

Specialty Testing – Phil Rooney, Bolder Testing Group

Janitorial and Sanitary Supply Industry – Doug Pertz, Bolder U.S. Sanitation Group
