At GSV, our approach is to leverage our experiences, knowledge, and network to maximize value for our customers, shareholders, employees, and partners as we manage businesses and invest our own capital. Everything we do is driven by the entrepreneurial spirit that anchors our firm.

A Unique Beginning

Greater Sum Ventures launched in 2016, imagined by the bootstrapped entrepreneurs who created Ministry Brands, a platform of ministry-focused software solutions that would go through 3 recaps in 2 years, most recently selling for $1.4 billion. In a deal that would become the 2017 Private Equity Deal of the Year, the Ministry Brands model helped pioneer GSV’s unique playbook.

What the team learned was that bringing together families of industry-specific SaaS owners would allow the owners to collectively revolutionize their end-market as they grow their own brands. From cost savings through synergies to cross-selling related customer bases, joined business owners are able to achieve rapid, profitable growth.

Competence & Collaboration

Our experienced team guides our portfolio companies to grow stronger, create value and unlock potential. From sourcing and research to diligence and operations, GSV is a team of proven experts whose collective expertise is greater than the sum of its parts.

Our Previous Investments

Southern Hospitality

We love our Knoxville home base for many reasons – from its laidback charm to its thriving economic climate. The area boasts both a family-friendly and a business-friendly environment.

Knoxville has managed to retain a small-town vibe in spite of its many amenities typically associated with big-city living.

Known for its Southern hospitality, mild weather, and abundant outdoor recreation, East Tennessee continues to climb lists as a most desirable and affordable place to live and work.
