Capital 54 is hyper specialized in its approach. The organization is focused on solving one problem and it believes if this problem is resolved, extraordinary returns are available.
The problem of focus is there are approximately 2 million professional services firms in the US, but 90% of them never reach scale. Because of this, the owners of these firms rarely create wealth with a successful exit. Yet, they should because companies spend $560 billion annually on professional services.

There is a solution to this problem which results in significant wealth creation. The solution is specialized management know how, significant global relationships, a long-term outlook and plenty of available growth capital. Capital 54 has developed these missing ingredients by specializing in six ways.
