PARTNERING WITH AMBITIOUS PEOPLE AND COMPANIES TO CREATE LASTING VALUE
Covalent Equity Partners is a private equity firm investing in tech and tech-enabled businesses. We leverage our deep sector expertise and relationships to help companies and management teams reach their full potential.
Our investment approach is based on partnership. Active collaboration, hyper-alignment, curiosity, humility, endurance, and optimism create more value than anything else.
Our disciplined approach leverages specialized operating partners and structured processes to rapidly implement value-creation initiatives, ensuring portfolio companies achieve their full potential within an accelerated timeframe
We look for companies with significant potential, regardless of the stage or size. This flexibility allows us to find the best risk-return for our investors
We focus on situations that require creativity to unlock, including venture capital to private equity transitions, recapitalizations, founder-transitions, carve-outs, and take privates.
We focus on established software and services companies that generate proprietary data sets & data acquisition modalities to train and power specialized AI products
We are full stack enterprise tech investors. This full visibility allows us to form high fidelity insights across the software, services, and systems ecosystem.
The growth at all costs mentality that dominated the last decade is unsustainable, often leaving companies cash-starved, levered with liquidation preference, and unable to achieve the durable compounding growth that creates lasting value. It may make sense for venture investors to pursue this optionality, but more often than not management teams and founders bear the real cost.
We believe the path to enduring success requires a fundamental reset: strategic recapitalization that aligns stakeholder incentives, removes misaligned parties, and refocuses management on profitable, sustainable growth. By cleaning up the capital structure and establishing disciplined operational frameworks, we free up resources that can be strategically redeployed into high-impact innovation initiatives.
This approach enables companies to invest meaningfully in transformative technologies—particularly AI-first products and services—that drive both immediate competitive advantages and long-term market leadership. Our methodology transforms growth-stage companies into profitable, self-sustaining enterprises capable of compounding value over decades, not quarters.

Atoms have an innate tendency to form covalent bonds with each other by sharing electrons. Through this bond individual atoms become stable, organized, and purposeful, creating ever more complex molecules. Covalent bonds are essential to make everything around us in the physical world.
Similarly, when humans form strong bonds by sharing knowledge, skills, and resources they can organize themselves into companies, communities, and societies that achieve something greater than their individual parts.
Covalent was founded with a clear philosophy to investing: the power of partnership and shared purpose is woven into the laws of our universe and essential to human progress.
