💡𝐔𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐅𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐬 & 𝐏𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐄𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐲 In private equity, a fund’s structure isn’t just about legal terms — it’s the engine that keeps everything moving. It defines how capital flows in, how investments are placed, and how returns are shared among investors. When designed right, it aligns GPs and LPs seamlessly — building trust, efficiency, and long-term value. What’s your take — is fund design the unsung hero of private equity value creation? #PrivateEquity #FundStructure #ValueCreation #VentureCapital #GPsAndLPs #InvestmentStrategy

Super excited to close our second fund. This represents our vision to seek and capture value in microcap markets, both private and public. My team and I will continue to bring excellent results to our partners as usual for Fund I and II. —————————————————————————— We’re pleased to announce the final close of Accelwire Microcap Buyout Fund I at $18.1 million. This private equity fund extends our event-driven micro-cap discipline into control investments focused on short-duration buyouts and complex transitions in smaller enterprises. Our original public-markets vehicle, Accelwire Microcap Opportunities Fund, continues to operate. Together, the two strategies broaden our sources of return, diversify liquidity profiles, and strengthen our ability to act around identifiable catalysts. What this means for our investors: • Diversification Complementary exposures across public and private micro-cap opportunities. • Focused mandate Control positions in smaller companies facing inflection points - owner transitions, carve-outs, and lender-led processes, where disciplined execution can unlock value. • Measured growth A lean, governance-first model with capacity awareness and rigorous risk control. Thank you to our limited partners who share our conviction in a process built for the inefficient edge of the market. - Accelwire Inc.
