2Northside Group is an independent sponsor, led by seasoned technology entrepreneurs and operators, focused on acquiring and personally operating exceptional private companies. Unlike traditional investors, we provide more than just capital; we bring deep, hands-on experience in leveraging technology to modernize operations, unlock new revenue streams, and build enduring value.
Our principals have spent their careers in the trenches as CTOs, technical founders, and operational leaders for companies ranging from startups to established market leaders. Their expertise lies in executing the very digital transformation journeys that unlock a company's full potential.
Our Investment Focus
We are actively seeking majority stake acquisitions of U.S.-based businesses with $1M - $15M in revenue. We're a perfect fit for founders at an inflection point, whether you're planning for a well-deserved retirement or you've taken the business as far as you can and seek a hands-on partner to break through a growth plateau. In either scenario, our goal is to honor your legacy while building the company's future with our operational and technological leadership.
Our focus is on cash-flow positive businesses with the following characteristics.
Target Sectors
Vertically Integrated Software: Niche B2B, B2C, DTC, or Marketplace solutions.
Technology-Enabled Services: Businesses in niche markets where technology can create a significant competitive advantage.
Niche Products/Services: Companies in fragmented industries prime for a technology-driven roll-up strategy.
Business Dynamics
Possesses a multi-year operating history with proven market demand.
Fulfills a critical need with a diversified customer base and low churn.
Presents a clear opportunity for a technology transformation to modernize and scale operations.
Financial Flexibility
While we focus on profitable companies, we will consider turnaround situations where our operational expertise can be the primary driver of value creation.
Our Partnership & Value-Add
Our core belief is that sustainable growth is built on a superior operational and technological foundation. For the companies we partner with, we bring:
A Proven Operator's Playbook: We have direct experience leading product development, streamlining operations, and building high-performing technical teams.
Technology-Led Growth: From implementing modern ERPs and CRMs to developing new digital products with global reach, we have the in-house expertise to make technology a core competitive advantage, not a cost center.
Dual-Sided M&A Expertise: Our team brings extensive, hands-on experience from both the buy-side and sell-side of lower-middle-market M&A transactions (PE, corporate leadership on both sides of M&A, strategy and technical advisers).
We understand that selling a business is a monumental decision, often driven by a desire for a thoughtful succession plan, sustained growth, and the continued success of employees and customers. Our approach is collaborative and hands-on, partnering with owners, ensuring a smooth transition, and preserving the unique culture and vision they've built.
We move quickly and confidentially, with a transparent process designed to respect the time and priorities of business owners. We welcome confidential introductions from and conversations with owners, M&A advisors, and investment bankers.
