Invictus Growth Partners

ScaleUps are on the most difficult part of their journey: turning initial viability into exponential growth and long-term success. A decision can mean flight or free fall. That’s where a trusted partner comes in. For over 25 years we’ve partnered with the world’s leading software ScaleUps, providing the capital, operating guidance, and expansive network companies need to propel growth for the long term – and soar. Software From The Start In 1995, we bet on our hunch that software would change the game. We’ve since partnered with hundreds of executives who’ve transformed and shaped industries, changing the way people live and do business. Insight’s approach is straightforward and results-driven. We deploy our three core pillars - scale, focus, and experience - to help companies capture value and generate long-term business success. Focus Insight accelerates revenue and profit in software companies. Our obsession with software has produced a habit of success. We recognize industry patterns, emerging tech markets and software trends. We’ve accumulated the knowledge to understand the strategies needed to win. Scale We have scale. As of February 24, 2022, the closing of the firm’s recent fundraise, Fund XII, brings Insight Partners regulatory assets under management to over $90B. Insight Partners has invested in more than 600 companies worldwide and has seen over 55 portfolio companies achieve an IPO. Our market reach gives executive teams access to networks, customers, resources, data, acquisition targets, and counsel. Our scale provides companies with a platform to win in M&A and organic growth. Experience We’ve seen it all. With over 25 years of operating and investing in software, we know what it takes to build a successful business. Our practitioners geek out over SaaS pattern recognition, building product, executing, and iterating. Executives trust our experience. We're usually a CEO's first call, and we like that. We’re available 24/7 to advise and help. Insight Onsite is the ballast of this commitment. Our growth operators help companies build all core capabilities from product to talent. We dedicate resources and time to advise executive teams, accelerating their ability to sell to new customers, capture opportunity, and realize value. About Our Team Insight’s people are passionate, hungry, committed and smart. We breathe growth, we live scale and we produce success. Our leaders have years of practice investing, growing, and realizing value with some of the most important software companies of our time. We blend investment experience with Onsite’s operational skills to back companies as they scale.

We invest in capital-efficient SaaS companies ready to take the next big jump. Our founder's roots run deep. Entrepreneurs ourselves, for thirty years our mission has been to help tech founders grow and realize their vision. Our first decade focused on financial advisory, having advised over 200 tech firms on high-value outcomes. Operators at heart, we launched Kennet’s US presence in 2000 with a focus on helping founder-led bootstrapped companies achieve their potential. Over the past 20 years, we have taken an entrepreneurial approach to international investing by combining analytics, talent, and capital to cultivate over 50 high-growth ventures with almost $1 billion invested globally. In 2021, Kennet recapitalized, and the North American and European teams restructured to focus on their respective markets. The result is Savant Growth; a US fund with a powerful software and operations platform dedicated to accelerating growth for capital-efficient SaaS companies. Our mission is to help our founders/CEOs build high-growth market-leading companies. We do not work alone. We have the power of our operations platform through DevSavant and SaleSavant. We continue to partner with Kennet, managing Kennet V's and Kennet VI's US investment program. Together, we work to achieve global market leadership for our companies.

We look similar, but we're fundamentally different to other venture funds. We've built our own businesses. We're investing our own money. We're not limited in what we can do. We invest in people, not ideas. We seek founders who are passionate about building generationally great companies. We focus on fast growth tech companies ...but we’re infinitely inquisitive Our depth of experience and lack of constraint are powerful when it comes to working with great founders. Our experience lends itself to founders of technology start-ups who are building growing businesses and who value our capital and experience. We look for growth equity positions, where we’re all on the same side of the table. Because we've been there before, we’re interested in simple capital tables with aligned, participating shareholders. Our best experiences have been when we're the only shareholder, and when we invested at inception. We don’t have a fund horizon or limitations. This lets us play the long-game for the truly outstanding companies. Our view is that it's your company and we'll do what we can to help you succeed. We're happy to buy founder or secondary shares where it makes sense. Fundamentally, what matters to us is that we back high integrity founders to build world-class businesses. Our Investment Focus This is what we value and look for in our investments. But we’re infinitely inquisitive (that is, we break rules!). So if your business doesn’t necessarily tick all these boxes and you are raising venture / growth capital or might in the future, please drop us a line (no, it doesn’t need to be a warm intro!) Great people: Passionate entrepreneurs that we like and want to work with. Complex domains: Companies that are solving significant problems. Business software: Software that has the capacity to be mission critical over time. Recurring revenue: Business models which are – or look like – recurring revenue. Growing markets: Markets that are rapidly growing (though we often find the best SaaS businesses start with small TAMs). Founders we can help: Companies and founders who have a deep ability to scale and learn and where we understand their domains.
