Tenzing introduces entrepreneurs panel

The panel comprises six founders, entrepreneurs and CEOs: Glenn Elliott, founder and CEO of Reward Gateway; Bill Collis, former CEO and president at Foundry; Bobby Healy (pictured), CTO of CarTrawler; Louise Rogers, former CEO of TES; Titus Sharpe, the founder, president and former CEO of MVF; and Adrian Thompson, CEO of Aspen Pumps.

Most of the businesses the panel works for have had significant exposure to private equity over the years.

The panel members will support Tenzing's portfolio companies by providing strategic support as well as day-to-day practical help in the areas of sales, digital marketing, product innovation, overseas sales and expansion.

All six members are invested in Tenzing's first fund, the firm highlighted in a statement.

Tenzing held a final close for its maiden fund on its £200m hard-cap in early 2017 after three months on the road. Tenzing Private Equity I closed £50m above its £150m target.

Tenzing was founded in 2015 by Robert Jones and Guy Gillon, both formerly partners at Bluebird Partners. In March 2016, Tenzing recruited former Inflexion Private Equity partner Christian Hamilton as co-managing partner, before appointing HgCapital founder Ian Armitage as non-executive board member five months later.
