Overview
Pritzker Group invests the capital of one of America's best-known business families — the family behind Hyatt — through two arms: private capital, which buys and holds companies outright, and venture capital, which has invested directly in technology startups for more than two decades. Because the money is permanent and proprietary, there are no fund cycles and no LP-driven exits. For GPs, Pritzker Group is best approached as a co-investment partner and direct-deal ally; the family's broader network also allocates to managers on a relationship basis.
