Guidepost Growth Equity

Guidepost Growth Equity is a Boston-based private equity and venture capital firm established in 2007 that invests in growth-stage technology companies in the United States and Canada. The firm targets B2B software, infrastructure software and services, tech-enabled services, data services, and healthcare IT, focusing on scalable, technology-driven businesses and avoiding capital-intensive opportunities. Typical investments range from $15 million to $75 million, with options for majority or minority stakes, and the firm does not require controlling ownership. It seeks to lead or co-lead first institutional rounds and aims to obtain a board seat in portfolio companies to support strategic growth. As a growth equity investor, Guidepost focuses on helping technology-enabled businesses reach scale, often alongside liquidity events for shareholders and owners. Based in Boston, the firm leverages a North American focus.
