INVESTMENTS
IPX Capital’s investment philosophy, and sample prior and current investments.
Investment philosophy
REAL ESTATE
Multifamily residential and hotel transactions where value can be created through operational and physical improvements.
CONSUMER, MEDIA AND ENTERTAINMENT
IPX Capital invests in consumer products companies and retailers with substantial opportunities to expand market share or enter new categories while enhancing competitive positioning, operations, and brand strength. Ideally, theses companies are positioned to capitalize on the convergence of shopping, entertainment and social media.
For more than 30 years, we have been helping entrepreneurs and management teams develop and execute growth plans. We often help cultivate compelling brands into a ubiquitous-channel presence through bricks and mortar, e-commerce, direct marketing, interactive TV, social commerce and more. Our assistance may support new distribution channels, improvements in supply chain management and product offerings, include acquisitions of smaller manufacturers or supply chains, or expand the geographic footprint of a retail operation. Through our network, we believe we can help in sourcing, marketing, information technology, manufacturing, supply chain management, and distribution channels to support and leverage our management teams.
