Tempo Capital Partners

The firm executes a multi-strategy private equity mandate covering growth equity, late-stage venture, expansion capital, and secondary transactions. This allows Tempo to invest directly in companies seeking growth funding while also acquiring LP stakes and portfolios through secondary purchases, primarily across European and North American markets.

Tempo invests through both direct primary rounds and secondary transactions. Its direct practice targets growth and expansion-stage companies, while its secondary arm acquires existing fund interests and portfolios, giving the firm dual access to private market opportunities.

Tempo concentrates on developed private markets, with primary coverage across Europe and North America. Its London headquarters anchors European origination, and the firm evaluates opportunities across these regions for both direct investments and secondary deals.

Tempo's multi-strategy structure generates deal flow through two distinct channels: direct company outreach and GP relationships for growth-stage investments, and LP and intermediary networks for secondary transactions. This dual-origination model provides visibility into opportunities that dedicated single-strategy firms may not typically encounter.

Tempo operates as a private equity manager combining direct growth investing with a secondary and special-situations capability under one roof. This hybrid structure is less common than pure-play venture or secondary firms and allows Tempo to apply its sector diligence across both primary and secondary deal types.
