The Brydon Group is a private equity firm founded in 2022, headquartered in Washington, D.C. The firm acquires and grows small businesses across software, healthcare, and business services sectors, with a focus on mission-critical B2B and B2G verticals. Its target companies typically generate $1-5 million in EBITDA, with the firm investing in 5-6 businesses annually.
The firm operates through a partnership model with experienced operators, most notably via its CEO-in-Residence Program. This competitive program selects fewer than 2% of applicants and provides them with dedicated capital, deal infrastructure, value creation playbooks, executive coaching, and a two-year sourcing runway. The approach pairs operational leadership with institutional deal execution capabilities.
The Brydon Group's founding team brings combined experience from large-cap private equity firms including Blackstone and Carlyle, bulge bracket banks such as Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan, and multiple successful software exits. The team also has 12 combined combat deployments from elite Navy SEAL teams, informing a veteran-led culture that emphasizes service, stewardship, and integrity. Transactions are approached with honesty and transparency, with reputation positioned as paramount to the firm's operating ethos.
