Our Focus

865 Capital is a privately held investment platform that partners with operators, founders, and asset owners to originate, structure, and execute high-conviction opportunities across sectors.

Rooted in both entrepreneurial and operational experience—complemented by a foundation in institutional finance and investment banking—we approach each opportunity with strategic creativity and executional rigor. This dual lens informs our core belief: that entrepreneur-led, locally anchored partnerships often yield the most compelling and durable value creation.

Built on the independent sponsor model, we invest flexibly across real estate, hospitality, consumer brands, wellness, and lower middle-market businesses. Our mandate is intentionally broad, allowing us to uncover asymmetric opportunities overlooked by conventional capital and to pursue them through bespoke structuring and hands-on involvement.

From complex special situations to growth-stage partnerships and asset repositioning, our approach is thesis-driven, execution-focused, and relationship-led. We look to back exceptional people, align incentives, and bring more than just capital to the table.
