Technology

Our technology focus is about strengthening the everyday work of our portfolio companies and opening the door to future growth. Rather than chasing trends, we look for technology businesses and tools that solve real operating challenges in education, facilities care, real estate, and logistics. Over time, this will take the form of direct equity stakes in emerging companies, as well as internal platforms used across our holdings.
We are building a pipeline of potential investments in areas such as workflow automation, facility and fleet tracking, digital compliance records, and data dashboards that give leaders a clear view of performance. When a preschool director, a janitorial supervisor, or a property manager can see accurate information at a glance, they make better decisions for staff, clients, and communities.
Entrepreneurs will find in us a patient, operationally minded investor. We understand how hard it is to introduce new tools into busy workplaces, so we favor products that are practical, intuitive, and capable of showing measurable impact in weeks rather than years. Founders gain access to our portfolio as a proving ground, along with guidance on pricing, go-to-market strategy, and integration with existing processes.
For investors and strategic partners, our technology activity offers exposure to innovation grounded in real-world demand. Every prospective opportunity is tested against clear criteria: Does it improve safety or quality? Does it save meaningful time or cost? Can front-line teams adopt it without extensive retraining? When the answer is yes, we see potential to scale both within our portfolio and across the wider market.
In the years ahead, we expect technology to tie our education, janitorial, real estate, and logistics interests more tightly together, creating a data-informed network of businesses that serve people more effectively and operate with greater resilience.
