Deal Type: Growth Financing
Exit: Sale to strategic buyer
In 2001, Genesis Park identified a growth investment opportunity in a small energy software company with a product that provided automated wireless data input for ERP systems popularly used in large industrial facilities common to the Houston region (refineries, chemical plants, etc.). We were the only professional investor in the capital structure and assisted with board oversight, talent recruitment and client presentations. In exchange for our added value, we took an equity warrant to compensate for differentiated effort among shareholders. SAT was sold to Invensys in 2008. Post-closing, Genesis Park served successfully as the shareholder representative for complicated post-closing intellectual property litigation management.
