About Us
About ZSP Capital
Our journey into the private equity investment space began in 2009 when we invested in a small bio-tech company called ZS Pharma.
Through our relationship with the Guillem Family Office, based in Dallas, Texas, we were presented with the opportunity to invest in a company founded by Dr. Al Guillem, the co-inventor of Mucinex.
We were open to exploring the opportunity due to the success realized by Dr. Guillem and his investment office. HIs brilliant leadership, vision and experience gave us great confidence. We did what Ralph Waldo Emerson said 150 years ago, 'Hitch your wagon to a star!'
In 2015, ZS Pharma was acquired by Big Pharma company Astra Zeneca for $2.7B. Needless to say, we were extremely excited and were off and running.
Shortly after the ZS Pharma deal closed, Dr. Guillem and his partner, Dr. Jeffrey Keyser(co-inventor of Mucinex) founded a new company, Renibus Therapeutics. We invested in a seed money round into Renibus in February 2016, with a new respect for private equity investing and a high level of confidence in this team.
Over the past eight years, we have been introduced to a small number of exclusive and hand-selected bio techs and have diversified our personal portfolios in the bio pharma space.
Since 2020, we have helped various companies in advancing their therapeutics toward their ultimate goal of approval for commercialization. Building relationships, offering opportunities and expanding our network of potential investors allows us to continue to make a difference in the lives of people in a positive way.
We feel very fortunate to have been associated with this unique and highly successful group over the past 15 years, and now want to assist others with these same opportunities.
The private equity space has opened an entirely new world for us and, while you may have not previously considered private equity or had the chance to invest in it, we would like you to join us in learning more about this exciting arena.
That is our passion and our mission and it's what motivates us every day!
