About Grumman Hill Group, LLC
Grumman Hill was founded in 1985 for private equity
investments in small to middle market companies with
outstanding leadership and strong growth potential. We have
typically invested in CEOs whose firms have established
business models yet are still early in their development.
Grumman Hill typically does not take majority positions in
companies nor does it participate in pure exits. Instead we
are a backer of teams and provider of growth capital.
