About HSP
Heritage Search Partners (HSP) is the search fund investment arm of Heritage Holding — a Boston-based investment firm that's been buying, building, and growing companies for over a decade.
We’re not just investors, we’re operators who’ve been in the trenches, scaling +10 platforms (and +30 add-ons) across industries. We back search funds, independent sponsors, long-term holdcos, and entrepreneurs filling equity gaps.
We’re also building our own platforms through Heritage Holding, so we can provide you with sharper insights, more battle-tested advice, and a network you can tap into from day one.
Our Search Roots
Our roots in the search fund community run deep.
In 2015 after graduating from HBS, Alex de Pfyffer and Ross Porter founded Heritage Holding which started as a self-funded search vehicle that resulted in the acquisition of Maicom, a critical infrastructure services company based in North Andover, MA.
At acquisition, Maicom had 6 locations, 120 employees, and 90% customer concentration with the Comcast Corporation.
5 years later - after 2 add-ons and +2x revenue growth - in August 2021, the Audax Group acquired Maicom for $80 million - a 16x Gross MOIC outcome that put Alex & Ross on the map as talented small business builders.
