NEXT HELM CAPITAL

OPERATOR-LED CAPITAL FOR WHATS’S NEXT

Next Helm Capital partners with founder-led businesses to drive long-term growth through hands-on leadership and flexible capital.

We are an independent sponsor—and operator-led investment firm focused on acquiring and growing lower middle-market companies in Texas and the Southern United States.

We specialize in platform investments where ownership is transitioning, operations are critical, and long-term stewardship matters. We bring more than capital—we bring execution, alignment, and care for the people who built the business.

Our approach combines strategic growth planning, operational discipline, and a strong network of financial partners. Whether we lead directly or empower existing leadership, we focus on preserving legacy while unlocking the next phase of growth.
