Press release issued by Alpine Investors in respect of Alpine Investors VI
June 15, 2017
Alpine Investors (“Alpine”), a San Francisco based private equity firm specializing in high growth, founder‐owned, lower middle market companies in software and business services, announced the final closing of its sixth fund, Alpine Investors VI, LP, (“Alpine VI” or the “Fund”) at its hard cap of $532 million of capital commitments.
Alpine VI officially launched at year end and was quickly oversubscribed. The Fund has significantly expanded its investor base garnering demand from leading endowments, family offices, foundations, gatekeepers and pension plans.
“We are thrilled to have built such a wonderful base of high‐caliber and like‐minded investors,” commented Graham Weaver, Managing Partner of Alpine. “We are excited to continue our strategy of delivering outstanding returns to our limited partners and building long‐term relationships with our CEOs and management teams over multiple funds.”
“Alpine’s CEO‐in‐Residence strategy allows the firm to buy high quality businesses in need of institutional management, where competition is relatively scarce. This approach clearly resonated with investors,” said Jennifer Cho Rinehart, CEO of Acalyx Advisors, which served as exclusive placement advisor.
Hogan Lovells served as legal counsel to Alpine.
