Metropolitan Equity Partners

Metropolitan Partners Group is a private investment firm providing non-controlling growth capital to entrepreneur-led businesses across the U.S. The firm supports non-sponsored companies, offering tailored capital and operational expertise. This approach allows founders to maintain ownership and preserve their strategic vision while accelerating growth.

Founded in 2008 by Paul K. Lisiak and Adrian Blumfield, the firm emerged from an insight to address a distinct market need. They established an alternative investment manager, providing growth capital to owner-operators seeking to scale without ceding majority control to traditional private equity sponsors.

Metropolitan Partners Group serves ambitious owner-operators seeking bespoke financing and institutional investors exploring opportunities within the non-sponsored lower-middle-market. Their vision centers on fostering enduring partnerships and enabling founder-driven growth through strategic capital and its robust Operating Network & Ecosystem, empowering businesses to thrive.
