Nexa Equity LLC, a private equity firm focused on rapidly scaling lower middle market software and fintech businesses that address markets underserved by technology, has launched. The firm was founded by managing partner Vlad Besprozvany, a former investor at Insight Partners and managing director at Greater Sum Ventures, along with former teammates who worked closely together at Insight Partners.

Nexa Equity will be focused primarily on control buyouts with strong alignment from current management teams.

Nexa Equity will target founder-led software and fintech companies with revenues ranging from $5 million to $20 million in the application software, healthcare IT, and electronic payments enablement sectors, among others. The Nexa Equity team will bring a hands-on approach to its portfolio companies and work closely with management teams to facilitate growth organically and through strategic M&A as well as execute operational improvements. This highly successful approach was utilized in notable investments in which the Nexa Equity team was involved while at Insight Partners, including Checkout.com, Inhabit IQ, EveryAction, and PayIt, among others.

“Nexa Equity launches with an exceptional team, a differentiated strategy, and considerable experience gained from our involvement in executing and leading over 50 transactions on behalf of renowned software-focused investment firms,” said Besprozvany. “Our guiding thesis is to help build high-performing companies that serve market areas that are behind the curve on tech adoption. We believe this opportunity is currently overlooked at the company size we are pursuing, as many software-focused funds have grown to target larger assets. We are excited to work with founders and management teams to help them scale their companies and achieve their long-term business objectives faster and with more certainty.”
