GROWTH. MINDED.

We have a history and passion for investing in and growing software and technology businesses.

Our mission is to deliver superior value to our investors and companies by forming collaborative partnerships that produce operational excellence and innovation.

Thoma Bravo is a leading private equity firm with a 40-year history, including over $30 billion in investor commitments, and a focus on investing in software and technology companies. We pioneered the buy-and-build investment strategy, and we first applied this strategy to the software and technology industries nearly 20 years ago. Since then, our firm has acquired more than 200 software and technology companies representing over $50 billion of value. Our investment philosophy is centered around working collaboratively with existing management teams to drive superior operating results and innovation. We execute through a partnership-driven approach supported by a set of management principles, operating metrics and business processes. We support our companies by investing in growth initiatives and strategic acquisitions that drive long-term value.

Have extremely high expectations of our team and portfolio companies, yet give them the authority and responsibility to empower them to execute and succeed. We truly live these values each day, and they have manifested themselves in making Thoma Bravo one of the world’s largest and most successful private equity firms.
