Value Creation.

LLR believes that companies choose growth partners not only for the value of their capital, but for the value that they can create together. Our dedicated Value Creation Team (VCT) brings together deep functional and operating expertise, a multi-touch and collaborative process, and data-driven advisory services to help companies gain a unique competitive advantage in their markets and the opportunity to reach their highest potential.

It’s a cross-functional and non-prescriptive approach that can help enable LLR portfolio companies to achieve or exceed their growth aspirations over the life of the investment.


Focused on High-Impact Growth Initiatives

Cross-Functional Areas of Expertise

LLR’s Value Creation Mission is to help accelerate the value of the LLR portfolio through partnership and by serving as trusted advisors who bring deep functional expertise to our portfolio companies and our investment professionals. Together, we grow companies every day.
