GHP Principals have managed capital for the primary investors for over 20 years.
The Great Hill founders worked together in a predecessor organization, Media/Communications Partners, and in the mid-1990s, they initiated the research- based investment model that has resulted in the broad range of industries now covered by Great Hill Partners. This effort was formalized as Great Hill Partners in 1998.
