Businesses over 3 Decades
Founded and led by Tristan Ramus and Ian Munro, T20 started with the investment of our own private capital and never deviated. We’ve built our success brick by brick, through entrepreneurial wisdom, not artificial cash injections.

Annual Portfolio Revenue
The future belongs to organisations led by people who can outgrow their limits. Our scale lets us take on complexity, never advising from a distance, but partnering with leadership to create turnarounds and build record year-on-year growth.

Global Workforce
Our independence gives us the freedom to double down on people-intensive business investments – and not step beyond our zone of expertise. Our focus has made us one of the largest workforce deployers in Europe and globally.
What sets us apart Hands-on investors with no institutional drag.
We invest our own capital
Using our own capital means every plan is shaped around what each business actually needs – not what an investor needs to report – and we can be fully aligned with the vision of management.
We are entrepreneurial
We’re not simply looking to invest in companies with the right numbers on their profit & loss statements. We spot potential and help leaders build the systems, financial backbone, or global alliances they need.
Management is our strategy
When leaders change how they think, companies change how they perform. We address the limiting beliefs of management – and challenge them to replicate a new mindset in their wider culture.
Where we add value
We take pride in our ability to offer investment opportunities that wouldn’t otherwise be available. Our expert team support leaders in accelerating growth plans, minimising risk, and enhancing returns.
Our Portfolio Companies with the limits removed
Many of our portfolio companies haven’t only ushered in the next chapter of their organisation, they’ve ushered in the future of their sector too.
See PortfolioOur Values Our independence lets us stay true to our philosophy.
01
Transparent in everything
We work shoulder-to-shoulder with management teams, staying highly visible and highly accountable, and challenging leadership to do the same.
02
Leadership is the lynchpin
Leadership is the spine of a people-intensive organisation, so we look for willing leadership, ready to address limiting beliefs and learned behaviours.
03
Take no shortcuts
There’s no shortcutting lasting progress. Whether companies need disciplined growth, M&A integration or simplification, we let it take the time it takes.
04
No horizon looks the same
We don’t treat companies like assets. No matter the situation, we design business plans and investment horizons for a company, not for a fund cycle.
05
Invest only our capital
By only investing our own capital, we’re close to the consequences and nothing else – aligning us with management from day one.
06
Involved, not interfering
We challenge leadership, especially when the stakes are high, but we don’t dictate the nuances of its company’s culture or its management’s vision.
Our Commitment We consider all angles
Sustainability isn’t a separate track of work; it’s part of how resilient businesses operate. We bring ESG considerations into early decisions and long-term planning – from environmental targets to workforce wellbeing – so organisations grow in a way that lasts.
