JEGI Capital, which launched its first fund in February 2000, was founded on the core belief that traditional media companies must embrace new technologies in order to evolve successfully into a network-based economy. In line with this philosophy, we are committed to investing with an emphasis on private companies with software, enabling technologies, infrastructure and support services relevant in part or in whole to traditional media, marketing communications, and information businesses. Whether helping established media businesses to operate more effectively, reach or communicate with customers, or create new distribution channels, these technology-savvy companies will fundamentally change the way traditional media and marketing communications companies do business in the future.
