Prisma Group is an experienced Independent Sponsor located in Raleigh, North Carolina. We work with business owners, managers and investors to create and grow Enterprise Value within small and medium-sized private companies. We accomplish this through our:
· investment activities which marry ownership transition opportunities with the right set of capital to enable existing companies to reach their next level of performance,
· suite of commercial business development services targeted at growing revenues in core and adjacent markets, international expansion as well as acquisition,
· differentiated talent identification services in support of growth initiatives that require the correct, carefully selected manpower.
Our Direct Investments marry opportunity with the correct capital structure - while combining financial expertise with operational and strategy skills - to enable existing, profitable companies to reach their next level of performance. We are not bound by specific investment guidelines and strive to develop creative approaches to deal challenges and/or opportunities. Every investment is evaluated with the primary focus being our level of confidence in our ability to add value – if we cannot add value, we will not participate.

Process:
When we identify an opportunity, we will quickly identify capital partner(s) from our network with whom we will partner for that investment. From there, the investment team will work seamlessly throughout the ownership period. We are not bound by specific investment criteria (holding periods, industries, investment sizes, locations, etc.), and will work with Sellers and/or Management to determine the most prudent investment strategy (capital structure, growth strategy, holding period, etc.) for the opportunity. We have a very strong track record of quickly identifying capital and efficiently closing transactions.
