We mapped Hg Capital's entire portfolio into a Knowledge graph and studied their strategy.

Hg owns four companies that sell the same product to the same buyer.

The research every PE firm cites to justify buy-and-build says it stops working after two acquisitions. One company in this portfolio has made about a hundred.

29 of these 59 companies never raised a penny of outside capital before Hg showed up.

See what you can learn about their strategy and let me know!
