What We Do
We own, build, and operate a diversified portfolio of businesses and real assets around the world. Our holdings include private companies, select real estate assets, and long-term investments in public markets. We reinvest our returns directly into strengthening our existing operations and expanding into new opportunities, enabling disciplined, compounding growth. This approach positions us for long-term resilience and supports our commitment to creating meaningful, lasting value for the communities and industries we serve.
We are not a traditional private equity firm. Our philosophy centers on long-term ownership, operational excellence, and stewardship. We acquire businesses with the intention of building them for decades—not preparing them for sale. We avoid unnecessary leverage, prioritize stability, and reinvest profits directly back into the business.
For founders, families, and owners who care deeply about the people, customers, and legacy behind what they’ve built, we offer a different path. We become hands-on operators, preserving what works, strengthening what doesn’t, and growing the business without compromising its identity. Our commitment is simple: protect the legacy, elevate the brand, and ensure the company is positioned for long-term success.
What we look for:
Location: Primarily based in the United States
Ownership: Full buyout preferred, with openness for owners to remain involved during transition or long-term growth
Track Record: Minimum 3 years of consistent performance
Profitability: Net earnings from $500k to $5M with healthy year-over-year growth
Scale: Typically $2M to $15M in annual revenue
For more than a decade, GI has grown through disciplined ownership, reinvestment, and strong operating fundamentals. We focus on acquiring and building businesses that create durable value, working with founders and teams who are committed to long-term improvement, operational excellence, and challenging the status quo. Our philosophy is simple: strengthen the core, invest consistently, and build companies that last.
We don’t make passive investments. When we buy a company, we operate it. We improve its systems, strengthen its foundation, and build long-term capability. Our group brings real operating experience to every business we own—sharing what works, fixing what doesn’t, and driving meaningful improvements across the portfolio.
We are builders first. We create, acquire, and operate businesses with long-term potential and strong fundamentals. GI began as a small engineering-led venture in 2008 and has grown into a multi-sector operating group with companies in several countries.
Over the years, we have launched new businesses from scratch, acquired companies with strong potential, and strengthened underperforming operations through disciplined ownership and hands-on execution. Our portfolio spans a range of industries and real assets, unified by a single approach: long-term investment, operational excellence, and building businesses that last.
