Our Approach

Strategy

At its core, One Rock’s investment philosophy focuses on navigating complexity and identifying opportunities where we believe value creation levers are consistently within our operational control.

We seek to invest in growing companies that we believe would benefit from a hands-on, rigorous approach to operational and strategic value creation.

In an effort to enhance the value of our portfolio companies, One Rock provides operational, strategic and financial resources, by leveraging the expertise of our Operating Partners and the global resources of Mitsubishi Corporation, our strategic partner.
