Working with JMI

Focused Approach

JMI is focused on investing in growing software, internet, healthcare IT and business services companies. We invest in growing companies with strong management teams that provide a clear value proposition to business customers.  

Our investments come only after in depth primary research and thorough evaluations of markets and competitors. We are determined to make successful investments and build industry leading companies.   

Building Fundamental Value

We partner with management teams to build fundamental value.  We take an active role with management teams to advise on critical strategic, financial and operational issues.  Recruiting quality people and developing equity incentive programs is an area that is essential to growth and shareholder value. Through our network of contacts, JMI actively helps portfolio companies recruit top professionals at all levels, including external Board members, senior management and sales executives. 

JMI has significant experience in navigating the public markets, as advisors to our portfolio companies and as investment bankers. In total, members of JMI have completed over 150 initial public offerings for companies such as Microsoft, BMC Software, Computer Associates, Oracle, Checkfree, Sterling Commerce and Sun Microsystems. JMI has extensive expertise in mergers and acquisitions as well.

Our portfolio companies and industry contacts form a powerful network committed to working with and helping our companies become industry leaders in the markets in which they operate.

Long-Term Approach

We have been valuing companies in our target markets since the early 1980's and have over 100 years of combined experience helping management teams build industry leading companies. Our portfolio includes many examples of companies that have scaled profitably and created significant shareholder value. Building successful companies takes time and we partner with management teams to build industry leading companies over the long-term.
