Riverwood Capital

Riverwood Capital Management L.P. is a private investment firm focused on growth equity and private equity investments in technology and technology-enabled businesses. It is headquartered in the United States and operates from offices in Menlo Park, New York, Miami and São Paulo. The firm states that it was founded in 2008 and had $6.1 billion in assets under management as of 31 March 2024. Its investment activity includes software, payments infrastructure, media technology and semiconductor-related businesses. Riverwood generates revenue through fund management economics: management fees on committed or managed capital and carried interest on realised investment gains. Its direct commercial stakeholders are institutional limited partners allocating capital to Riverwood-managed funds, while its operating counterparties are founders and management teams of technology companies seeking growth capital, buyout capital and operational support. The firm typically leads investments in the $25 million to $250+ million range, positioning it as a scaled specialist investor rather than an operating software vendor.
