Investment thesis
Council Capital invests in mission-driven healthcare businesses led by exceptional teams, aiming to make healthcare better. It targets healthcare technology and healthcare services companies that are growing and EBITDA positive, often bootstrapped and founder-led, with enterprise value up to $100M and material post-close management ownership. Beyond capital, the firm leverages its CEO Council of healthcare public and private sector leaders and a dedicated Value Creation Team of operators to help portfolio companies address common obstacles, accelerate performance, and grow faster than their size would otherwise allow.
