Value-added strategic partner for best-in-class infrastructure construction and services companies
SMC was established to create a specialized strategic acquirer, developer, and long-term owner of operating businesses that fit a contractor and service provider-centric, as opposed to asset-centric, or “Core-Plus” definition of infrastructure
Since inception in March 2021, SMC has raised capital from and formed capital partnerships with multiple institutional, family office, and high net worth investors, totaling approximately $1.2B
