Provide the Assist

ArchStar partners with owners and individuals in a collaborative approach.

Disrupt and Evolve

ArchStar buys solid companies, builds them into great companies and hold onto them for extended periods (8–12 years) to maximize return on invested capital. ArchStar operates a concentrated portfolio of platform investments in companies with differentiated business models and long-term growth potential.

Any ArchStar engagement end goal is to provide the assist and leave the founders and businesses in a better place than when we onboarded. We are good stewards of what gets built by being incredibly respectful of the origin and non-linear process of the idea and vision expansion.

Laser-focused on long-term growth.

  •  Track record of superior performance

OWNER MENTALITY, LONG-TERM VISION, AND PASSION

If this sounds a bit unconventional in the world of private equity funding, it is.

As fund founders, we’ve been through the owner journey before. We didn’t want a boss, and you likely don’t either. In fact, if we put our past ownership role hat on, we know that we wanted someone who understood our owner mentality, long-term vision, and passion.
