Its $400M is the largest closing for state in private equity money

Mountain West companies have a new outside investment vehicle — one that’s a fancier follow-up to a successful private equity fund started in 2004.

Lehi-based Sorenson Capital http://www.sorensoncapital.com/ today announced the closing of its second private equity fund designed to help established companies in Utah and a few other states. The fund, Sorenson Capital Partners II, has attracted about $400 million in capital, making it the largest closing for a Utah-based private equity firm.

Utah firm makes history

Sorenson amasses $400M, what some say is largest closing of its kind in state

Sorenson Capital Partners has raised what some believe is the biggest pool of investment dollars ever amassed by a Utah private-equity firm.

The Lehi-based company accumulated $400 million between mid-September and the middle of December from more than 30 investors in Europe and the United States, outstripping the $250 million it raised for another Sorenson investment fund in 2004.
