Women-owned start-up sponsor Riveter Capital by the end of the month expects to close on the purchase of a company in the women's health sector.
It would mark the first acquisition for the firm, founded by Colleen Gurda (pictured at right) and Sarah Abdel-Razek, who are pursuing an unusual strategy of acquiring lower-mid-market companies owned or led by women or minorities.
Riveter Capital's hiring plans are so far modest. Expect the firm, with one intern working remotely, to bring on a couple of more interns in the near term. Aptitude for financial modeling is desired, along with a strong work ethic, entrepreneurial spirit, and passion for hammering out investment theses.
