Private equity firms are drawing investment from independent government entities
Rewritten Article:
Mega Lally, the brains behind the creative powerhouse Highdive, once hesitated about taking on private equity investment. But a recent partnership with Svoboda Capital Partners has given her a fresh outlook.
With Highdive's reputation growing fast, thanks to their hit Super Bowl ads, Lally saw the potential for her agency to level up its game. As it welcomed its 100th employee, the agency was growing at a staggering 20% year-over-year. Building upon this success and expanding the service offering required some serious cash infusion.
"Running a bigger agency means exploring new horizons, offering more services that clients demand. It's riskier, no doubt," admits Lally.
Eight years in the business, and the aggressively independent shop launched by Lally and her partners is no longer a small outfit. The transformation is natural, driven by ambition and the hunger to leave a mark. For this to happen, the agency needed a boost—to unleash its potential and realize bigger dreams.
In certain circles, private equity firms, like Svoboda Capital Partners, are seen as the catalysts for transformation and growth. Lately, Lally has been learning about their powerful influence firsthand. The journey hasn't been smooth, but the rewards are promising. Besides, as an entrepreneur, she is no stranger to taking calculated risks.
