We are equity-only checks with a typical size between $1-5M dollars.
We started Emko Capital 5 years ago as an Independent Sponsor. We quit our jobs and started at zero, grinding it out, talking to prospective sellers, submitting IOIs and finally closed our first deal. Fast forward to today, we have closed multiple transactions and raised a dedicated fund. With our dedicated fund, we actively invest in Independent Sponsor deals with a focus on industrials, manufacturing, and related services.
