OPG Investments
We seek to invest in start-ups and micro-caps, based on our shared belief in business as a social good, and our desire to support and develop other entrepreneurs. Our focus is on companies in industries we know and understand well, because we believe in partnering to support growth, not just to provide capital. Our experience has largely been with companies that make and distribute physical goods (and associated services businesses), whether via various channels to consumers, or business-to-business. Our expertise spans the range of challenges and issues most growing companies eventually face – from raising capital, to growing sales, and improving operations and profitability.
