Capital that compounds ambition into enduring value.
Celsius Capital Inc is an independent private investment firm backing founders, families and institutions across private equity, growth credit and real assets. We invest with discipline, operate with intensity, and hold for decades — not quarters.
Not a fund. A financial house built to last generations.
Celsius Capital Inc was founded in 2006 in New York with a single conviction: patient private capital outperforms impatient public capital. From a $12M first vehicle, we have grown into a multi-strategy house managing $1.4 billion across buyouts, growth equity, private credit and real assets.
We are operators first. 70% of our investment team has run P&L, built factories, scaled SaaS or restructured balance sheets. We take board seats, we open customer doors, we recruit talent — and we stay through cycles.
Today the firm serves 340+ families, founders and institutions, from first-generation entrepreneurs to endowments. Our capital is evergreen-aligned: partners have $180M of personal capital invested alongside clients.
