Rupesh Patel

I joined as Investment Director in January 2021 and look after our portfolio companies, who I will be actively supporting to accelerate growth and build shareholder value.

I have a track record of investing in entrepreneurial businesses and expertise in value creation through bolt-on acquisitions, product expansion and recruiting senior management teams.

Most recently, I worked at Praesidian Capital, a transatlantic private equity and debt fund focused on lower-mid market businesses, where I was responsible for minority growth and buy-out investments.

Prior to this, I led M&A and private equity transactions at Grant Thornton, spearheading transactions ranging from £5m to £100m in value. I qualified as a chartered accountant with Deloitte.
