Crescent Capital Partners – Australia’s most active private equity manager in Healthcare

Healthcare

Crescent Capital Partners is Australia’s most active private equity manager in healthcare.

Put simply, because of our experience, we get healthcare. With approximately half of our investments in healthcare, we intuitively understand what it takes to support healthcare teams to grow businesses through the next stage of growth. We are flexible in our investment approach, which can take the form of minority investment, majority investment, buyout, fund for growth or generational change.

Crescent has a track record of working alongside healthcare management teams to assist with growth. Led by Michael Alscher and Daren McKennay who have over 30 years operating and investing in healthcare businesses. Our operational and strategic focus and access to potential follow-on capital and opportunities separates us from our competitors.

Our expertise is across all aspects of health from primary care to diagnostics to implants to mental health and emergency management.

Clinical Excellence

At the core of everything we do in healthcare is a belief that a focus on quality and clinical outcomes first is paramount
and commercial outcomes will follow.

Clinical Outcomes

We understand that a focus on clinical excellence in healthcare is paramount. At Crescent, we support our management teams in developing and growing businesses that put clinical outcomes first. With this approach we will build better healthcare businesses and profit will follow.

Commercial Excellence

We support our businesses and management teams in striving for commercial excellence by investing in innovation, building strong brand equity and accelerating growth. Crescent’s unique blend of top tier strategy consulting support and operational expertise in healthcare provides management teams with the support they need to grow the business.
