APPROACH

scaling private and public
growth companies.

our approach to partnership.

Founders & CEOs

We back and support management teams in growing their businesses. This can take many forms — from a passive long-term supportive shareholder to more actively supporting at the board level. We let management and founders take some of their equity off the table.
Culture

We look for a defined high-performance culture, with teams who see culture as a critical strategic priority.
Leadership

We look to help and support great leadership, not replace it. We work best with leadership teams and owners that just can’t imagine doing anything else. We want our leadership teams to have a growth mindset - always looking to do things better.
Type of Business

We're open to Portfolio Companies in any industry. While we are industry agnostic, we have a more established track record with software, consumer, and healthcare.
Size of Business

We typically invest in companies with greater than $50 million revenue, but for those companies not yet at that scale but with big aspirations, we would still love to hear from you. We’re always happy to try and help you on your scaling journey where we can.
Growth

We help businesses who are looking to build a much bigger business over the long term — who aspire to revenue growth of more than 20% per annum. We’re about long-term, sustainable results for the benefit of all shareholders not short term profit maximisation or acquisition-led growth.
Investment Size

Our investments per business scale from $50 to $300 million. Our funding structure is as flexible as your business needs. We always make sure the management, founders, and Boards have significant shareholdings.
Exit Approach

We invest over the long term, with no defined exit time on the investment’s life.
Regions

We are not geographically constrained. We’re proven in helping businesses grow globally.
Governance

We don't require a board seat, but do value high-performing board and governance structures. TDM is often actively involved in board construction and participation. Board members should be passionate about the business’s mission and align themselves with shareholders by also owning significant equity.
