Valor is generalist, consumer growth like L Cat / TSG is not pure tech, Cerberus’ Supply Chain and Strategic Opportunities does some industrial stuff but is not pure growth equity (some buyout), some firms have teams that focus on “American dynamism” like a16z and GC, I cant think of any that specialize in industrials because that industry in itself is not high growth, makes more sense as a buyout investment that can take advantage of LBO fundamentals,
