Cooper Crowe

Cooper Crowe is a Vice President in Sverica Capital's Boston office, where he focuses on sourcing and evaluating new investment opportunities, executing transactions, and supporting portfolio companies. Sverica is a lower-middle-market private equity firm founded in 2001 with roughly $2 billion of committed capital across six funds, pursuing a "business builder" approach that takes an active role in helping management teams execute growth strategies.

Before joining Sverica, Crowe was an Associate with NewSpring Holdings, the buyout team at Philadelphia-based private equity firm NewSpring Capital, where he evaluated acquisition opportunities and executed transactions in the lower middle market. Earlier in his career he worked as a Quantitative Research Analyst at Hamilton Lane, a large global private-markets investment firm, where he worked with large data sets to support both clients and the investment teams.

Crowe earned an undergraduate degree in Mathematics and Economics from Villanova University (2011–2015). He also holds the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) designation.

• Invests through Sverica's strategy, not personally as an angel — control buyouts and growth equity in the lower middle market.
• Targets growth-oriented companies with recurring revenue or replicable unit economics, generally under $25M EBITDA and under $250M enterprise value.
• Core sectors: technology and software, business services, healthcare, and advanced industrial / manufacturing services and automation.
• Equity checks of ~$25M–$75M (with capacity to go larger alongside co-investors).
• Sverica emphasizes a "business builder" philosophy — devoting significant internal resources to help management teams develop and execute growth plans, and evaluating companies starting with their "reputation with customers, employees, and suppliers."
