Stated investment criteria

What Gemspring Capital says it buys

Read from Gemspring Capital’s own website in August 2026. This is what the firm says it buys, not what anyone has recorded it buying, and figures are shown in the currency the firm itself used - nothing here is converted. Every line links to the page it was read from.

Transaction typesAdd-on1

A stated mandate is a firm’s description of itself and was true of the page on the day it was read; firms widen and narrow what they will look at without updating the site. Gemspring Capital states that it will take either a controlling or a minority stake. Nothing here is a commitment by Gemspring Capital to consider any particular business, and nothing on this page is represented as being for sale.

SEC filings

What Gemspring Capital has raised

From this firm's own Form D filings. A fund files one within fifteen days of its first sale, under penalty of perjury, which makes these the hardest numbers on the page.

Smallest accepted commitmentNone stated
Filed fromCONNECTICUT

Form D covers US-domiciled vehicles raised from accredited investors. It will not capture a fund raised outside the United States, separately managed accounts, or capital deployed off balance sheet, so treat these as a floor rather than a total.
