Summit Partners

Summit Partnersis an American investment firm based in Boston, Massachusetts. The firm focuses on investing in technology, healthcare, life sciences and other growth industries.

Summit Partners was founded in 1984 by Roe Stamps and Stephen Woodsum, who previously worked together at TA Associates. Greg Avis would also join as a co-founder shortly after. The firm is considered one of the earliest private equity firms to focus on growth investing.

In 2000, the three co-founders handed over daily management of the firm to five partners.

In 2015, the firm acquired Alydar Capital. It now operates as the public equity investment arm of Summit Partners.
