Own
Owning durable organizations, built to last.
Xavier invests alongside founders and operators in organizations built to last. He does it through joint ventures, co-investments and fund structures, with a focus on growth, scalability and disciplined governance. Partnerships are relationship-driven and by introduction.
Principles
Three principles that guide every partnership
Alignment first
Xavier takes ownership positions with leaders who share the risk and the long view. The best partnerships begin with shared incentives, not a term sheet.
Governance as an advantage
Years running global operations under federal compliance requirements taught him that clear controls and honest reporting protect value. He brings the same discipline to every partnership.
Built to outlast the founder
He favors businesses with durable demand and a plan for succession, so the organization stays strong beyond any one leader.
Structures
How partnerships are structured
Xavier works through three primary structures, each chosen to fit the opportunity and the partners involved.
Joint ventures
Xavier partners with an operator or an established business to build or acquire something neither could do alone.
Co-investments
He invests alongside founders, operators and select institutional partners in individual opportunities.
Fund structures
For some strategies, pooled structures bring partners together under shared governance.
For founders & operators
What Xavier looks for
- Founder-led or operator-led organizations with durable demand
- Honest, well-organized financials
- Leaders who want a long-term partner, not just capital
- A clear path for growth, scale and, eventually, succession
The partnership
What partners can expect
- A seat at the table where governance is concerned: board or observer roles, as appropriate
- Clear financial controls and regular, transparent reporting
- Candid advice from an operator who has run complex organizations
- Compliance discipline from day one
How conversations begin
Partnerships start with a trusted introduction.
Xavier builds partnerships through trusted introductions. If you are a founder or operator looking for a long-term partner, start a conversation. If you’d like to be introduced as a capital partner, a mutual contact is the best route.
