Peterson Ventures
For over 20 years, and across over 300 companies, Peterson Partners has partnered with exceptional entrepreneurs. This experience has confirmed for us that people are the key differentiator in success. Entrepreneurial leaders are different from other leaders. They’re the people creating the future, the people so determined to get things done that they make magic. They are the change makers. We back leadership teams who have the grit and passion to build enduring enterprises that make a difference. Partnering with people like this is our dream job. We love nothing more than rolling up our sleeves to help great people build great businesses.
