Grady Campbell, a leading private equity branding and marketing firm, has again recognized LNK Partners in their 2022 TOP 50 PE Firms in the Middle Market™ list. This program’s focus is to acknowledge highly reputable PE firms that have great teams, an exceptional track record, and demonstrate significant deal and fundraising activity. Private equity firms on the 2022 TOP 50 PE list have earned the trust of investors and business owners.

This is the second year in a row that LNK Partners has been honored on this list.

“While large PE firms tend to draw most of the media attention, we know that the majority of middle market M&A activity is driven by small and mid-sized firms. This year’s TOP 50 PE list is exceptional. We are proud to support these leading middle market private equity firms whose relentless pursuit of excellence leads to significant advantages for their portfolio companies and limited partners.”

– Kerry Grady, Program Founder

Founded in 2016, The Top 50 PE Firms in the Middle Market is the original awards program designed to acknowledge and promote leading small and mid-sized private equity firms in the middle market. The TOP PE Firms in the Middle Market is highly regarded as a reliable, unbiased program by PE professionals, business owners, investment bankers, the media, and the public-at-large.

Approximately two-thirds of LNK Partners’ investments have been in founder-led businesses. As a partner to founders, they work hard to provide support whenever and wherever it is needed. Sometimes that assistance comes in the form of helping to determine high-level strategic priorities. In other instances it may mean providing help with the execution of tactical initiatives. In all situations, LNK is not interested in “running the business,” but rather in partnering with great management teams and then working hard to support them in any way possible as they build outstanding consumer and retail companies.
