Symmetry Growth Capital Symmetry Growth Capital Investment ManagersFinance SGC seeks to achieve superior investment returns by investing in consumer, services, education and industrial companies. They do not invest in technology companies, such as biotechnology, communications or software. The firm primarily invests in companies that are beyond the initial concept phase, i.e., companies that have products, customers, revenues and are profitable or have a reasonable likelihood of becoming profitable within 12 months. Preferred investments have proven their economic model, or shown signs of being able to prove their business concept in the near future. With regards to geography, they only consider investment opportunities in the US. SGC invests in private companies, in public companies and in PIPES. They also invest in small buyouts, either individually or as part of a larger syndicate. They prefer investment flexibility to rigid rules, which may restrict them from making a great investment. Irrespective of industry, stage, geography or corporate structure, SGC focuses on companies that are at an inflection point of growth. They look for companies that are likely to accelerate their growth rate as a result of some specific variable which they can identify and believe in. This may be a new strategy, product, customer, distribution channel, marketing campaign, cost reduction plan, management team member.	Founder	-
