Hersh Family Investments
Patient Capital and Sponsorship for Proven Entrepreneurs
Hersh Family Investments (HFI) exists to enhance the financial, civic, and philanthropic interests of the Kenneth A. Hersh family. HFI invests the family’s capital in opportunities with exceptional management teams and the potential to create substantial long-term value.
HFI differs from a typical investment firm by managing its own capital without the restrictions often found with institutional private equity funds. We provide an attractive alternative to companies and executive teams in search of committed partners that provide the flexibility to take long-term perspectives in order to build great companies over time.
