Since Ennovance Capital is led by former highly successful senior executives from Fortune 100 chemical companies, we have unparalleled expertise in the chemical, healthcare (as it relates to chemistry), allied product and specialty material industries. Some of our key differentiating factors include the following:

· Industry Insiders: The substantial chemical industry experience of our team provides us with the ability to both identify as well as capitalize on opportunities that other less-focused private equity firms generally miss.

· Value Creation: Our deep industry and operating expertise provides us with the ability to drive growth and substantial value creation through operational improvements and strategic growth initiatives rather than relying on financial engineering.

· Extensive Global Network: Ennovance team members have established an extensive global network of high value relationships that we leverage to create value at our portfolio companies.

The Ennovance team also has considerable investment and transaction expertise as it is comprised of many seasoned deal makers who can quickly and effectively evaluate and execute opportunities, which results in many tangible benefits such as the following:
