Please try againThe firm’s roots trace back to 1978, when Claude Gauthier, an electrician, founded an infrastructure services business in Quebec, Canada. Alongside his sons, he grew the family’s holdings through more than 15 acquisitions into a 4,000+ employee group spanning infrastructure services, construction materials, aerospace & defense, retail and leisure. Between 2015 and 2020, the family sold its businesses to strategic buyers and established a family office.In parallel, JP Gauthier built an institutional investing career acquiring and growing smaller businesses. He began his career at Goldman Sachs and went on to invest at Tenex Capital Management and Five Arrows, Rothschild & Co’s alternative assets arm, where he most recently served as Principal. Three Valleys brings those two paths together: the experience of a family that spent decades building companies from the ground up and the discipline of institutional private equity.“Our family went far on our own, but the right partner could have taken us even farther,” said JP Gauthier. “We built Three Valleys to be that partner for owners at the same crossroads: one that has sat in their chair, offers meaningful liquidity and brings operating capabilities normally reserved for far larger companies. These owners have built something extraordinary; we want to help them take it further, together.”TVC works with owners who want more than a transaction, whether they intend to continue leading day-to-day or step back into an advisory role. Owners typically retain a meaningful economic stake in the next chapter while TVC works alongside management to preserve the culture and legacy that made the business successful and build the infrastructure required to scale.Through the TVC Operating System, the firm brings institutional capabilities across strategy & performance, talent & culture, offering optimization, sales engine, processes & systems and growth as well as M&A. The approach is designed to give smaller businesses access to the caliber of resources, expertise and management support traditionally associated with much larger private equity-backed companies without losing the entrepreneurial qualities that drove their success in the first place.This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.TVC operates with a focused investment team supported by a broader bench of experienced executives, operators and advisors across its focus industries. Its formation was supported by Isabelle Nichols, formerly of Bridgewater and the Dell Family Office.About Three Valleys CapitalThree Valleys Capital is a private investment firm that partners with small and mid-sized businesses across services, healthcare and specialty industrials in the United States and Canada.
