Strategy

Azimuth has invested four funds across 20+ years, focused on energy assets in energy transition, infrastructure, E&P and technology.
​
Our portfolio companies are generally private, early stage energy businesses that provide an opportunity for substantial growth in size and value. In addition to providing capital, Azimuth adds value to its investments through active board representation and mentoring of management teams.
​​
From a geographic perspective, the majority of Azimuth’s investments are based in North America, with a more selective allocation to international opportunities.
​
Azimuth tends to be a lead and inception investor. Proactive, direct engagement with prospective management teams has led to approximately 90 percent of our fund investments. Corporate governance is important – it must be aligned with capital at risk. Azimuth's partners are active, engaged directors of our portfolio companies. In addition, we encourage strong independent directors, which has been demonstrated to add value throughout the investment cycle.
​
Azimuth’s innovative co-investment program, developed at the inception of the firm, enables our limited partners to participate in substantial opportunities while providing capital to enhance the growth prospects of our portfolio companies.
