Overview
Our value extends beyond the capital we provide our portfolio companies.
Our broad industry knowledge, global network, and deep knowledge
of the public and private capital markets serve our entrepreneurs
in ways our capital alone could not. Our goal is to be valuable,
effective, and trusted investors while at the same time establishing
productive, long-lasting relationships with our business partners.
Global Network of Relationships
We manage private equity capital from institutional investors in
the United States and over a dozen countries in Europe and Latin
America. Our network of domestic and international relationships
has been a valuable resource to many of our portfolio companies.
By leveraging our contacts, individual portfolio companies have
identified key customer relationships, strategic acquisition targets,
and promising senior management candidates. Our relationships in
Europe and Latin America, in particular, include internationally
respected institutions and individuals who actively support our
portfolio companies as those companies expand their operations abroad.
Strategy Based Risk Management
Boston Millennia Partners delivers superior investment returns by
managing investment risk. At the time of our initial investment,
our target companies typically have existing customers, proven technologies,
and exceptional management teams. By minimizing our exposure to
technology risks and market risks, we are able to focus on companies
that are participating in rapid industry growth, and have competitive
advantages from new technologies or other factors that are driving
industry changes. We can then concentrate our efforts in assisting
these companies with strategic objectives, organizational development,
and financing strategy.
Tangible Value Added Capacities
In addition to the traditional multi-disciplinary strengths which
the Millennia team brings to our portfolio companies, we are able
to directly assist our portfolio companies in the following high
value areas:
- Executive Search Resources: As each company grows, so does
its need for highly qualified management. That is why we offer our
portfolio companies a set of executive search and organizational
development services that assist entrepreneurs in building stronger
organizations more efficiently. We call this strategy our
CoreBuilder
approach. Millennia takes an active role in the recruitment process
for executives and other highly skilled personnel, contributing
our contact and judgment to ensure successful placements within
our portfolio companies. We provide entrepreneurs with a faster,
more effective approach to building category-leading companies.
- Strategic Advisors: Through our Strategic Advisors Partnership,
Venture Affiliate program, and Scientific Advisory Board, we have
an extensive network of highly qualified entrepreneurs and other
affiliates who are valuable resources for our portfolio companies,
providing strategic advice and introductions as well as value-added
expertise. In addition, we have important relationships with senior
professionals who can serve as interim CEOs or “change agents,”
when appropriate.
