Profile

WestView Capital Partners was founded in 2004 to focus on partnering with outstanding founders and entrepreneurs to help them grow their firms through technology, innovation, opportunism, hard work and grit. Since inception, WestView has executed on its vision of being helpful yet unintrusive to its management team partners. WestView has raised five funds totaling $2.7 billion and has invested in 66 companies. WestView prides itself on being a complementary partner to passionate entrepreneurs with domain expertise so deep, it’s effectively “in their blood.” WestView focuses on helping entrepreneurs grow and evolve their organizations as they navigate the many opportunities and challenges that come with growth. The firm has significant experience with high-growing companies, having helped many more than double in size during its investment period. Approximately half of WestView’s investments have been in minority positions, and across all investments, management ownership has averaged ~39%, allowing owner operators to meaningfully benefit from the growth achieved together.

WestView believes culture defines great organizations. As such, the firm never looks to change the cultures of the companies it invests in. It seeks to expand upon the attributes that its entrepreneurs have successfully instilled in their organizations. WestView differentiates itself through its ownership flexibility, longstanding track record of working with growth companies, and being a true value-added partner to its entrepreneurs. WestView has also continued as an investor in multiple companies where it was the first institutional capital, as a testament to its commitment to being a longstanding growth company investor.

Trusted Growth Investor: WestView Capital’s Matthew Carroll

Key People

WestView is still led by its five founding members 20+ years after the firm was founded in 2004 – Rick Williams, Carlo von Schroeter, Matt Carroll, Jonathan Hunnicutt, and John Turner. The next generation at WestView has also been with the firm for over a decade – Greg Thomas (2012), Jeff Clark (2011), and Kevin Twomey (2014). Across the four managing partners, the team has partnered with over 100 companies over the last 35 years, staying true to WestView’s founding principles of being excellent partners to founders and management teams.

Funds Raised

WestView began with a $195 million fund in 2004 and is currently investing out of WestView V, a $1.0 billion fund raised in 2023. WestView’s fund size has grown consistently, but prudently, to allow the firm to focus on the lower middle market and providing first professional capital to founders of excellent businesses.

Capital Responsibility

WestView seeks to make sector-focused investments in growth-oriented companies that are led by exceptional entrepreneurs. The firm partners with existing management teams that are passionate about continuing to build their businesses while owning a meaningful stake in the future success they seek to create together. WestView believes that effective corporate governance and a commitment to environmental and social responsibility are important components of private company investing, and therefore strives to integrate the consideration of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into pre-investment diligence analysis, ongoing portfolio company monitoring efforts, and exit positioning strategy.

Since its founding in 2004, a focus on integrity and business ethics has been core to WestView’s investment strategy and brand identity. WestView implemented a formal ESG policy in 2022, though its commitment to developing strong relationships with the investors and management teams it partners with has always required acting with integrity throughout the investment and firm-building processes. WestView values the collaborative partnerships formed with these stakeholders and believes its commitment to incorporating ESG factors into its investment process will help sustain and further strengthen the firm’s reputation with investors and management teams alike.
