Investment approach
- Thesis
- The founding principle of Palomar is teamwork; we work closely with our portfolio companies to assist them in achieving their objectives. We believe that beginning early with a company is the best way to utilize our experience in building value rapidly by focusing the company on a small number of key milestones. Our philosophy includes a commitment to responding rapidly to new ideas and business plans, and to forming partnerships with the goal of creating sustainable companies for the long term.Source (opens in a new tab)
