CoLift is a private equity firm established in 2021, specializing in growth and buyout investments within the business services, industrials, and energy transition sectors, primarily in the United States and OECD countries. The firm differentiates itself by offering "solution capital" and cultivating long-term partnerships, providing bespoke financial structures and a network of over 50 experienced business leaders (60% CEOs, 92% C-suite) to support management teams. Their strategy involves a deep understanding of industries and trends to connect clients with relevant specialists and decision-makers, enhancing project outcomes. CoLift targets mid-market companies with investments ranging from $50 million to $250 million per deal. While specific AUM is not disclosed, they manage at least one private equity fund with a commingled structure focused on North America. The firm emphasizes its extensive network of over 50 "CoLifters" who bring significant sector expertise, scaling experience, and international reach. CoLift LLC is headquartered in New York, NY, and also functions as a limited partner consultant, offering direct and co-investment capabilities. It is important to distinguish this entity from the German "COLIFT" or "COLIFT Expert Network" which operates as an expert network and research firm.
