GenNx360 Capital Partners Closes $865M Fund IV For Aerospace, Defense, And IT Industries – AfroTech
GenNx360 Capital Partners has closed its fourth flagship fund.
The New York City-based private equity firm, led by Ronald E. Blaylock, was founded in 2006 and invests in U.S. lower-middle-market industrial services and business services companies. Its sectors include infrastructure services, testing and inspection, aerospace and defense, automation and industrial technology, commercial services, and food services. The firm has about $3 billion in capital under management, according to a press release.
Closing Fund IV
The latest update from the firm is the close of Fund IV, which raised $865 million in commitments, surpassing its $600 million goal, Shoppe Black reports. This marks GenNx360 Capital Partners’ largest fund to date. Diverse investors, both existing and new investors, participated in the raise, alongside leading pensions, asset managers, insurance companies, foundations, and family offices.
Fund IV has made five investments across the previously mentioned sectors. The fund also successfully exited its investment in Precision Aviation Group in May 2026, according to the press release.
“We are deeply grateful to our long-standing limited partners for their continued trust and partnership, and we are pleased to welcome our new investors to the GenNx360 platform,” Blaylock said in the news release. “Fund IV reflects confidence in our team, our strategy, and the model we have built over nearly two decades of investing in founder- and management-led businesses. We remain focused on being thoughtful stewards of capital, strong partners to management teams, and disciplined builders of enduring companies.”
Managing partner at GenNx360 Monty Yort commented:
“The value our investment approach creates from sourcing to exit is demonstrated by the fact that across our funds we have realized over $1.3 billion in the last 12 months and in excess of $2 billion over the last 2.5 years for our investors. Our sector expertise, investment playbooks, and pipeline in our target markets position us well to build on this momentum in Fund IV and beyond.”
