Edgebrook Partners

Edgebrook Partners functions as a microcap private equity fund, precisely targeting the B2B software sector. The firm specializes in acquiring substantial minority stakes in profitable and growing software companies, often those considered niche or under-the-radar within the broader B2B landscape. Its strategic approach focuses on specific verticals including B2B SaaS, marketplaces, and rental software across North America, identifying entities with solid fundamentals and growth potential.

The firm was founded by Andy Preikschat, a Chartered Financial Analyst, who established its track record beginning in 2003. Preikschat’s insight stemmed from identifying overlooked investment opportunities within the B2B software ecosystem, particularly in smaller, yet resilient, technology enterprises. This specialized focus allowed Edgebrook Partners to carve out a distinct position by focusing on companies that might be overlooked by larger private equity players.

Edgebrook Partners serves as a capital partner to its portfolio companies, currently holding stakes in nine distinct businesses. The firm’s vision revolves around continuing to unearth and invest in unique B2B software opportunities. It aims to support the long-term development and expansion of these specialized software providers, fostering their growth and strengthening their market positions within their respective niches.
