Thesis
The Copia Group is a private investment firm founded in 2022 and headquartered in Chicago, Illinois. They focus on providing debt and equity capital solutions to privately held, lower middle-market companies in the U.S., with a strong emphasis on impact investing and supporting diverse business operators. Their core investment thesis is to bridge the wealth gap by providing growth capital to businesses that may have limited access to traditional financing, aiming to generate competitive returns and significant social impact. They target companies with positive EBITDA over $1 million and revenues between $5 million and $150 million, focusing on stable, sustainable, recurring revenue businesses. A key aspect of their strategy is partnering with women and ethnically diverse business operators, aiming for over 50% of their deals to be with such firms, and also seeking companies creating products/services for underrepresented populations. They combine financial capital with 'relational capital,' offering access to a proprietary executive network for expertise and support. As of December 31, 2025, they managed approximately $114.8 million in AUM, with a target of $150 million for their debut offering, Copia Credit Impact Fund I. Their typical deal size ranges from $5 million to $15 million. They were involved in a debt and equity capital raise for Promise Holdings in January 2026.
