Solamere Capital was founded to serve as a multi-family office focusing on superior private equity opportunities. A small number of families with broad networks joined together to aggregate their access to top-tier private equity firms, proprietary deal flow, and management resources and expertise. Solamere was co-founded by Tagg Romney, son of Republican Presidential candidate, Mitt Romney. Solamere Capital was named after a private community in Deer Valley, Utah, where Romney owned a ski mansion.
