Aris Capital is a private investment firm, often referred to as a "search fund," founded by Jared Smith and Chris Mikkelsen. The firm's strategy is to identify, acquire, and then personally lead a single, privately-held business. They are backed by a diverse group of seasoned entrepreneurs, operators, and investors who provide capital and strategic guidance. Their approach differs from traditional private equity by focusing on long-term growth and operational involvement in one company, rather than managing a portfolio of investments.
