BluWave, the Business Builders’ Network that connects the private equity industry with best-in-class talent, industry consultants and service providers, announced Trivest as a 2024 Top PE Innovator Award winner*.
BluWave’s third annual Top Private Equity Innovator Awards recognize the top 2% of private equity firms that differentially embrace proactive due diligence, transformative value creation, modern private equity firm operations and corporate citizenship practices.
“We’ve made a genuine commitment to doing right by founders, and it’s built into how we conduct ourselves in every part of the relationship. Our team works hard to be the partner of choice for founders, and it’s great to be recognized for our innovation in doing so,” says Troy Templeton, managing partner at Trivest.
The Top Private Equity Innovator awardees were selected by a cross-functional committee that assessed candidates in consultation with a broad universe of limited partners, investment bankers, industry thought leaders and service providers in the private equity ecosystem. As part of their selection process, the committee evaluated more than 5,000 private equity firms and utilized more than 75 different factors, incorporating more than 400,000 data points.
“The 2024 Top Private Equity Innovators are providing differential leadership in the world of business,” said Sean Mooney, founder and CEO of BluWave. “Their innovative practices are strengthening companies, creating jobs, and catalyzing a rebound in our economy.”
The Top Private Equity Innovator Awards are distinctive in that they involve no financial obligations from any participants and the selection process is independent of any customer relationships.
