Katalyst Partners is an investment partnership of entrepreneurs with access to greater than $25mm in capital that invests in and consults companies with strong fundamentals and can benefit from hands-on involvement by our principals. Our Managing Partner, Boris Katsnelson has over 20 years of investment banking, private equity, operating and transformational leadership experience. He began his career in investment banking and private equity that springboarded him into a career of investing and running companies. He was an instrumental part of the turnaround of Sleep Innovations, a foam manufacturer serving B2B and consumer markets, that was in bankruptcy. Katsnelson built a $25+mm new business unit and revamped the B2B division's go-to-market strategy that led to doubling the business in 2.5 years. Katsnelson subsequently acquired and ran SpeedPro Imaging, a 100+ unit franchisor. As CEO, he revitalized the organization and its systems, leading to significant gains in systemwide sales and franchise unit count. More recently, Katalyst acquired College Hunks Hauling Junk and Moving in Denver and established operating systems that led to 230% revenue growth in the first year of its ownership. Katsnelson then ventured back into consumer products, acquiring Ultra Cuisine, an ecommerce bakeware products company. Leading a lean team, Katsnelson was able to double revenue and profits leveraging his prior experience in product development and working with overseas factories. Currently, Katsnelson is scaling Cedar, a real estate venture focused on finding homes from motivated sellers and buying them for cash for himself and other investors.
