Hey all,

I am exploring raising a 3 person search fund, which I understand is a bit non-standard. We have a good thesis for how we plan to tackle this and why it makes sense for us, but we'd love to connect with teams of 3 who have been through the process already. Does anyone know of any 3 person SFs that we can reach out to? Thanks in advance, this community has been incredibly helpful!

Top of my head, I can only think of the founders of ALZA in Mexico https://www.alzacp.com/, they are former searchers and now investors, so they can probably give you a comprehensive view of it from the searcher and investor perspective. Best of luck!

I think having more then one set of skills involved is fantastic idea. Just need to work out who is 'lead' and unless you buy a large co, the acquired company may not support 3 full time people. Great way to add complimentary skills.
