Private Equity and Child Care Learning Sprint

With private equity increasingly investing in the child care industry, it’s time for child care leaders to get smart about private equity. 

In four sessions over two months, Capita is hosting a learning sprint to help our Capita Forward members and others gain a comprehensive understanding of the private equity industry, its key strategies, impacts in other industries (e.g., health care), policy implications, and possible futures for private equity in child care. 

With this sprint, you will: 

  • Gain a foundational understanding of the private equity industry. 

  • Understand the possible impacts of increased private equity ownership on the child care industry. 

  • Access exclusive data and insights on the penetration of private equity ownership of child care businesses across the United States.

  • Learn from private equity experts and owner/operators who have interacted with private equity in both child care and other sectors

  • Foster collective sensemaking with your cohort by engaging in facilitated group discussions about private equity futures in child care. 

  • Explore policy implications and opportunities for policy innovation.

  • Develop a high-level assessment of opportunities and risks to your organization and strategy. 

  • Receive a synthesis brief narrating what has been learned for use within your organization.

Who is this for?

  • Child care program owners and leaders wishing to understand the broad implications of private equity ownership in the industry. 

  • Policy and system leaders aiming to future-proof child care policy against the disruptive potential of private equity in child care. 

  • Foundation leaders and private donors investing in early care and education seeking to understand how private equity might impact their strategy.

Don’t miss this opportunity to future-proof your childcare strategy, investments, and programs. 

Registration for non-Capita Forward members: $675

Registration for Capita Forward members and child care program staff: $200

To safeguard the quality of the cohort learning experience, we will limit participation to 25 people.
