SunRaise is a company aimed at providing reduced cost electricity to towns, schools hospitals & more. SunRaise is a special piece of Sawyer Island's history as they were the first every SIC partner. The relationship between SunRaise CEO Patrick Jackson and SIC's Keith Canning started in a spin class and grew into a combination of consulting and investment. Throughout our time together we built an impressive company backed by an all-star team and successfully exited just 3 short years from that day in spin class.
Our vision for SunRaise was centered around leveraging relationships to support entry to market as well as talent acquisition. Our goal was to add to our growing team of industry experts and with it, add to our already vast network of real estate connections. With this strategy, we could support the growth of SunRaise from the inside out. Soon enough, we would be providing exceptional value to our clients and to the environment.
The solution to the SunRaise growth initiative was based in our vision. That is, leveraging the power of relationships. Throughout the project, we leveraged new and existing relationships to secure contracts all over New England. Furthermore, we placed top notch real-estate talent in key management roles to ensure safe growth and consistently deliver above the expectations of our clients. In order to carry out the prescribed plan, we concluded that an injection of capital would be both necessary and incredibly effective. Our plan of attack was executed flawlessly and ended in a much desired acquisition.
In order to carry out our growth strategy, we decided with SunRaise that a hands on management approach must be taken with all initiatives. The close involvement of SIC built and reinforced the trust between SunRaise and its clients. Outcomes were always designed to be mutually beneficial. The eventual acquisition proved to both SunRaise and SIC that relationships, when leveraged honestly and effectively, are the most valuable resource in business.
