Investment thesis
Maywic Select Investments focuses on growth-stage companies, backing skilled and committed management teams with the potential to accelerate growth. The firm emphasizes relationships built on honesty, integrity and authenticity, which it credits for access to deals and deal sources unavailable to other groups, along with extended support for portfolio companies. It combines the founders' operating and investment expertise with a network of industry leaders who provide market intelligence, deal flow, operating know-how and strategic guidance. The firm operates through pledge commitments made by a select number of participants rather than a traditional committed fund.
