Building lasting value through long-term ownership.
We own and manage stakes in companies, and stay with them for the long run.
Augusto Ventures holds and manages shareholdings in a group of privately owned businesses. Some we own outright, others alongside founders and management teams.
We invest our own capital, which lets us think in decades rather than funds. Our role is to be a steady, engaged shareholder: setting direction, allocating capital and supporting the people who run each business day to day.
How we work
Four commitments that shape every holding in the group.
-
Long-term ownership
We buy to hold. There is no exit timetable, so decisions are made for the health of the business, not for a sale date.
-
Active shareholder
We sit close to our companies on strategy, governance and capital allocation, and stay out of the way on daily operations.
-
Shared resources
Group companies draw on common finance, operations and commercial expertise, so each can grow faster than it would alone.
-
Discretion
We are a private group. We let our businesses and their brands speak for themselves, and keep our own profile quiet.
We partner with founders and owners who want a permanent home for their business.
- Established, profitable companiesProven products and loyal customers, with room to grow.
- Majority and minority stakesFull acquisitions or partnerships alongside existing owners.
- Management continuityWe back the teams that built the business.
