Our Focus

865 Capital is a privately held investment platform that partners with operators, founders, and asset owners to originate, structure, and execute high-conviction opportunities across sectors.

Rooted in both entrepreneurial and operational experience—complemented by a foundation in institutional finance and investment banking—we approach each opportunity with strategic creativity and executional rigor. This dual lens informs our core belief: that entrepreneur-led, locally anchored partnerships often yield the most compelling and durable value creation.

Built on the independent sponsor model, we invest across real estate, hospitality, consumer brands, wellness, and lower middle-market businesses. Our mandate is intentionally broad, allowing us to uncover asymmetric opportunities overlooked by conventional capital providers and to pursue them through bespoke structuring and hands-on involvement.

From complex special situations to growth-stage partnerships and asset repositioning, our approach is thesis-driven, execution-focused, and relationship-led. We look to back exceptional people, align incentives, and bring more than just capital to the table.
