Caivis Investment Corp was founded in 2007 by David A. Steinberg & John Sculley with one goal: to help entrepreneurs turn good ideas into great companies.
As a provider of capital, strategy, business relationships, process and technology, Caivis is uniquely positioned to help its portfolio companies grow at a faster rate. Participating in major or minority investments at any level, from a convertible note to a leverage buyout CAIVIS provides the most flexible capital.
Since inception, Caivis has made 20 plus investments. Two examples include Zeta Global, which was recently named one of the 50 most promising private companies in the world by Forbes, and Forensiq, a company that Caivis incubated and grew, prior to its eventual acquisition by Impact Radius in May, 2016.
CAIVIS Investment Corp. was founded in 2007 as a response to market inefficiencies that left many profitable, but smaller, companies unable to obtain capital from venture capital and private equity funds. CAIVIS invests in or acquires these high potential companies and, working together, enables management teams to realize their full potential. A CAIVIS investment has a demonstrated track record of generating exponential marketing efficiencies, incremental margins, and improved ROIs for business owners and entrepreneurs. CAIVIS provides business owners the ability to gain market intelligence, industry and operational expertise, and access to capital.
