Client brief

We are looking for a name for a new private investment firm. Our focus is to be investing in established growth businesses (i.e. not early stage VC investing), that are leveraging innovative business models (software, consumer, health care) and that have a positive social impact. While we are not specifically social investors, our investments have a positive impact on all stakeholders.

We want the name to reflect the uniqueness of our firms approach and that we believe we are similarly bringing a modern, innovative approach to investing:

  • Private capital only. We are not 'building an investment business' but seeking to offer our capital, time, experience and partners to help companies grow and hence grow our own capital.
  • Matching long-term capital with long-term growth businesses and exceptional entrepreneurs/managers.
  • We partner with businesses, not just invest in them.
  • We believe we can earn great returns on our capital while still investing in businesses that have a positive social impact.

Looking for a short, sharp word that can be complemented with [X] Equity / Capital / Partners etc.

Just as we are investing in new, disruptive businesses, we believe we can build a modern investment firm and want a name that reflects this instead of the traditional "XYZ Partners" etc.

Naming tips for Growth Capital Investment Firm

Keep it pronounceable

A good business name should be easy to say out loud and spell from memory. If you have to spell it out every time you say it, it will slow down word-of-mouth growth.

.com still beats clever TLDs

Despite hundreds of new extensions, .com remains the most trusted TLD for professional brands. Customers default to typing .com - pick a .com name whenever possible.

Avoid trademark traps

Before you register, run a quick trademark search to make sure the name is clear in your industry. Similar names in the same category can lead to costly disputes later.

Test it in a sentence

Say "I work at [name]" or "Check us out at [name].com" out loud. The name should sound natural, confident, and memorable in everyday conversation.
