Bridgepointe Technologies Announces Strategic Growth Investment From Charlesbank Capital Partners and Carlyle AlpInvest

San Mateo, CA — 4/9/2026 — Bridgepointe Technologies (“Bridgepointe” or “the Company”), a leading technology advisory and enablement services platform, today announced a strategic growth investment led by Charlesbank Capital Partners (“Charlesbank”) valuing the Company at over $1 billion. An existing investor, Charlesbank will invest alongside Carlyle AlpInvest. The transaction is one of the largest recent investments in the technology services distribution market.

Since Charlesbank’s initial investment in December 2021, Bridgepointe has expanded through strong organic growth and acquisitions into a national platform that advises enterprises on telecom, cloud and IT infrastructure decisions, including supplier selection. With additional capital, Bridgepointe is well positioned to accelerate its growth trajectory, including pursuing strategic acquisitions, investing in technology and data capabilities, and scaling its sales and go-to-market organization.

As part of the transaction, Carlyle AlpInvest is investing through a vehicle that enables Charlesbank to continue its investment while providing meaningful liquidity to existing investors and equity partners seeking to realize value on the company’s performance to date. The combined support of Charlesbank and Carlyle AlpInvest as long-term partners strengthens the Company’s capital base for its ongoing development.

“Bridgepointe has evolved into a scaled platform with strong momentum and a proven ability to execute,” said Pedro Vaz, Managing Director at Charlesbank. “Our decision to reinvest reflects our conviction in Bridgepointe’s long-term opportunity and the strength of the management team.”

Adds Ryan Carroll, also a Charlesbank Managing Director, “This transaction provides liquidity to our early investors while positioning Bridgepointe for its next chapter alongside a new long-term partner. We believe the additional capital and partnership with Carlyle AlpInvest will further support the Company’s continued expansion.”

“Bridgepointe is a differentiated platform in a large and growing market, and we see a compelling opportunity given the Company’s trajectory, leadership team and acquisition strategy,” said Eric Anton, Partner at Carlyle AlpInvest. “We look forward to partnering with Charlesbank and management to support its ongoing development.” The transaction includes dedicated capital to continue to pursue strategic acquisitions, invest in technology and talent, and further enhance Bridgepointe’s operating capabilities – providing the financial flexibility to move decisively in a consolidating market.

“This investment materially strengthens our ability to scale and supports our mission to disrupt the technology distribution and consulting space,” said Scott Evars, Bridgepointe’s Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder. “With the continued backing of Charlesbank and the addition of Carlyle AlpInvest, we have the capital and strategic firepower to fuel our accelerated growth plans and broaden our capabilities to better serve our customers and partners.”

“The continued investment by Charlesbank reflects the strength of our partnership and our shared vision for the business,” added Brian Miller, Chief Revenue Officer and Co-Founder of Bridgepointe. “We are excited to build on years of momentum and to continue to expand our team and tools to support our customers in making more informed technology decisions.”

Bridgepointe’s executive leadership team and Board of Directors are expected to remain in place following the transaction.
