Episode 140 - Advantages of the Independent Sponsor Model: The Strive Equity Story
Update: 2025-07-31
Description
In this episode, Avneet Multani discusses Strive Equity Partners, a PE firm focused on investing as an independent sponsor in founder-owned industrial, healthcare and tech-enabled services businesses, typically in the $3-10m EBITDA range. Avneet founded Toronto-based Strive after working in the U.S. market and finding that lower midmarket deals were the best fit for his entrepreneurial work ethic. Seller rollovers, in which a retiring owner requires an experienced hands-on advisor to ensure smooth succession, are among the best opportunities for leveraging Strive’s skill set. As Avneet explains, the independent sponsor model is rapidly gaining acceptance in Canada and its flexibility should ensure its continued growth over the coming years.
