List of Private Equity Firms in Philadelphia | Pittsburgh
Philadelphia attracted a large amount of private equity during the technology boom of the late 1990′s and beginning of this decade. But like other technology-based regions, private equity investment fell considerably following the internet bubble’s burst around 2000-2002. The emphasis on venture capital and middle-market remains a focus for private equity in Philadelphia.
In 2008, Philadelphia private equity firms have continued the technology trend by investing a lot of capital into Bio-medical and pharmaceutical companies and website-based companies (notably an estimated $13 million to MyYearbook.com). According to the recently published “Money Tree” report, private equity investment in Philadelphia and surrounding cities in Pennsylvania have dropped by about $5 million dollars from this time last year. While this isn’t great news, it is not terribly surprising given current market conditions. With its close proximity to private equity centers like Boston and New York, Philadelphia seems poised to become a venture capital and private equity leader.
Similar to articles on other private equity hubs, I am compiling a list of private equity firms located in the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania region.
