We are investors who focus on what matters: our prospective and current portfolio companies.

We founded Dahlia because investors should focus on what companies do and the teams that lead them. Not transaction criteria or required KPIs.

We invest exclusively in existing management teams & software that businesses use to power core workflows

Instead of executing a playbook, we focus on the most impactful areas of opportunity for each company.

Targeted and Impactful Support: “Enterprise software” is not an investment strategy and companies deserve better than a generalist approach.

Flexible Investments: We do not have ownership thresholds, investment minimums / maximums, or use of proceeds requirements. Our focus is on what matters: solving what is best for the company.

Our Approach

The best way to support our companies is to understand their businesses intimately.

Our value creation is centered on the foundational component of every software company: the customer. What is the customer persona? How do they discover and purchase? How do they use the product? Where does the product integrate? The answers to these questions inform operational best-practices for each functional department.

Product

Optimal technical architecture, product roadmap design and acceleration

Growth

Go-to-market structure, customer success and retention, pricing and packaging, sales rep and channel incentivization

Scalability

Talent acquisition, IT systems, M&A strategy, capital markets

Our approach allows us to focus specifically and clearly, without jargon or generalizations. We believe that this leads to superior results.
