Andrew Cialino has joined LongRange Capital, a middle market private equity firm based in Stamford, Conn.
Cialino is joining the LongRange team from SFW Capital Partners, where he was principal and head of business development. While at SFW, he helped the firm build its business development engine and source several platform and add-on investments. Prior to SFW, he was the head of sales at Axial Networks, where he worked with hundreds of middle market private equity firms on their business development strategies and developed a robust network of potential deal sources.
“Andrew brings an extensive network and strong experience in middle market business development,” said Bob Berlin, managing partner at LongRange Capital. “We are excited to have him enhance our sourcing efforts and support the continued growth and success of LongRange and its portfolio companies.”
LongRange launched in 2019 and closed its first fund in September 2020 with capital commitments totaling over $1.5 billion. Last month, LongRange announced the acquisition of Batesville Services, a leading provider of quality death care products and services as well as innovative technology solutions, from Hillenbrand, Inc.
