Investment Pillars
1. Top-Tier Private Equity / Real Estate / Venture Capital Funds
Our syndicate secures exclusive allocation opportunities in top-decile private equity, real estate, and venture capital funds that maintain disciplined fundraising practices to protect returns. We prioritize funds with a proven track record of delivering exceptional results through careful capital deployment and long-term growth strategies.
2. Frontier Technologies
Our syndicate identifies high-growth companies solving tomorrow’s critical challenges across sectors like AI, biotech, fintech, Web3, and emerging markets. These transformative investments align with Gravy’s commitment to scalable innovation and leadership in cutting-edge industries.

To submit a nomination, complete this submission form with details about the investment and your connection to the opportunity to help us evaluate its alignment with our syndicate investment strategy.
Will Gravy consider all types of investment opportunities?
Gravy maintains a selective approach, prioritizing investments that align with our strategic focus and appeal to our network. Opportunities outside of our primary categories, such as independent sponsor-led acquisitions, early-stage companies without institutional backing, and real estate projects led by non-institutional sponsors, are currently excluded.
How does Gravy approach acquisition entrepreneurship?
Through the Gravy Acquire Network, we support underrepresented entrepreneurs acquiring scalable lower middle-market businesses ($5M–$50M in revenue), offering a unique pathway to ownership and generational wealth.
What are the benefits of submitting a high-potential opportunity?
Qualified introductions that lead to successful investments entitle the referrer to 10% of Gravy’s carry on the deal, recognizing the value of the network’s contributions to the syndicate’s growth and reach.
How will I know if my referral results in an investment?
Should Gravy decide to invest in the opportunity you referred, we will notify you and initiate the carry arrangement as outlined.
Is there a limit on earnings from successful referrals?
There is no cap on potential earnings; each qualified referral that leads to an investment entitles the referrer to 10% of Gravy’s carry on that specific deal.
Can I submit an opportunity in a sector not listed in Gravy’s primary focus areas?
While we generally prioritize our listed sectors, we welcome opportunities that are well-aligned with Gravy’s mission and backed by top-tier lead investors. These will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis, provided they demonstrate strategic fit and alignment with our investment criteria.
What is “Carry”?
"Carry," or carried interest, is a portion of the profits earned from an investment. In Gravy’s syndicate, members who successfully introduce an investment opportunity receive 10% of Gravy’s share of the profits (carry) if the investment yields returns. This incentivizes high-quality referrals that align with Gravy’s objectives.
