Weatherford Capital closes Fund II: Focus remains on regulated industries across Technology, Financials, Business & Consumer Services
TAMPA, Fla., March 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Weatherford Capital ("Weatherford"), a leading private investment firm, announced today its successful $300 million close of Weatherford Capital Fund II ("Fund II").
"We are thrilled to announce the close of Fund II and humbled by the continued trust and confidence of our investment partners," said Will Weatherford, Managing Partner of Weatherford Capital. "We are eager to serve each of the companies in which we are investing as genuine long-term strategic partners and continue to honor the trust of our faithful investors."
Consistent with Fund I's strategy, Fund II has sustained a similar thesis, emphasizing investments in experienced values-based leaders operating growth-oriented companies in technology, financial services, and business and consumer services.
"We believe our decade-long, market-leading investment thesis in the GovTech industry continues to bear fruit and thus headlines our approach to Fund II," said Will Weatherford. "A new area of focus was the growing opportunity to impact and drive one of the most influential industries in the life of the Weatherford family—sports education. It was partly our participation in sports that drove us to build a firm in which we believe that the way we win matters. We are excited to come alongside and invest in partners who are helping to shape the hearts and minds of our nation's future leaders," said Founding Partner Drew Weatherford.
Following the close of the fund, Weatherford Capital has grown to more than $1 Billion in assets under management. "As grateful as we are for that responsibility and excited for the opportunity it brings, we are equally as thankful to partner with companies and investors who value positive and lasting impact in the world just as highly as value creation. We built Weatherford Capital on foundational values that espouse human flourishing," said Founding Partner Sam Weatherford.
