About Us

CPS Capital is a Toronto-based private equity firm founded in 2013, focused on investing in North American lower middle market companies. We focus on "microcap" businesses that traditional private equity firms often overlook, generally with EBITDA in the 2 to 10 million range. Today, we have 8 active platform investments and approximately C$280m in assets under management.

We have a culture that's different from many traditional private equity firms. We expect high quality work and give our team meaningful responsibility early on. Analysts are closely involved in live deals, portfolio work, and problem solving across the firm. We take a hands-on, practical approach and focus on getting things done, especially in situations that require extra effort or creative thinking. We work closely with the entrepreneurs and management teams we partner with, and we take pride in supporting them when it matters. We're a small, collaborative team that enjoys working together and is committed to building strong businesses.
