A Structured Approach to Building Scalable Industrial Platforms

We combine strategic discipline, operational excellence, and flexible capital to aggregate micro-cap businesses into mid-market leaders.

We don’t deploy blind capital. We don’t chase opportunistic deals. We execute thesis-driven platform creation and disciplined buy-and-build strategies.

“The Triad”: Where Every Platform Begins

1- A Validated Investment Thesis

➤ Focused on fragmented, tailwind-driven industrial markets

2- A World-Class Operating Partner & Investing Partner Team

➤ An Industry veteran with management & industry expertise coupled with an M&A professional ready to lead inorganic growth

Once the triad is complete, we structure a dedicated fund to execute the strategy.

3- An Initial Platform Company

➤ A scalable foundation, ready to absorb acquisitions and operational improvements.

Dedicated Fund per Platform

Unlike traditional private equity or independent sponsors, Kumular raises committed capital for each platform, ensuring speed and flexibility in executing M&A without deal-by-deal uncertainty.

  • Capital to acquire the platform.

  • Pre-committed capital or pledges for add-on acquisitions.

  • Structured to align investors, operators, and Kumular through shared upside.

Disciplined Buy-and-Build Execution

We focus on:

  • Acquiring add-ons at accretive multiples.

  • Driving operational synergies and scalability.

  • Institutionalizing processes to prepare for exit.

  • Maintaining flexibility in capital structure to maximize ROE.

Dual Leadership Structure

Every platform is driven by two complementary forces:

  • The Operating Partner (Kumular Operating Partner) → Leads day-to-day operations, organic growth, and integration.

  • The Investing Partner (Kumular Investing Partner) → Leads M&A execution, strategy, capital allocation, and governance.

This ensures that no platform is bottlenecked by a single leader stretched across conflicting priorities.

Designed for Strategic Exits

Our platforms are built to scale into the radar of larger consolidators—whether PE-backed platforms or strategic acquirers.
We don’t hold indefinitely. We grow, scale, and exit through alignment with ongoing market consolidation.
