Wind Point Partners update assistance
Hello! I am an employee of Wind Point Partners and relatively new to Wikipedia. I will refrain from making any direct edits in accordance with Conflict of interest. I noticed that the data on the article is out of date by some years. Would an editor be able to help bring the page current? I appreciate your help in advance. Thank you MadNutt207 (talk) 14:15, 28 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Thank you for your quick reply and advice, I appreciate it.


 * My updates are outlined below:
 * 1. The second sentence of the lead section notes that Wind Point Partners focuses across a range of industries. Update, Wind Point Partners has narrowed their focus to three industry sectors; Consumer Products, Industrial Products, and Business Services.


 * 2. Update to the History Section: "Since its founding, Wind Point has raised approximately $4.0 billion of investor commitments and completed more than 100 investments and 300 add-on acquisitions across its nine private equity funds . The firm began raising their ninth fund in 2019 with a $1.2 billion target . The firm completed fundraising for its eighth fund in 2017 with $985 million of investor commitments . Wind Point's prior funds were raised in 2009 with $915 million of investor commitments and 2005 with $715 million of investor commitments."

i have stopped responding edits request because i have acknowledged that i do not have the proper experience on edit requests because my specialism  is anti vandalism. i would recommend that you redo the edit request for it to be reviewed by a person who has more experience than me on edit requests.

Wind Point Partners Acquisitions Edit Request
Hello again, I am an employee of Wind Point Partners and will refrain from making any direct edits to the page in accordance with Conflict of Interest. I noticed that the data within the History section of the company page is outdated. I would like to propose the below update to include additional acquisitions to bring this section of the page current. MadNutt207 (talk) 16:37, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
 * , from what I can tell none of those companies have their own articles. It seems a little promotional to just list these acquisitions without other context so I'm going to decline it. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 17:37, 30 July 2020 (UTC)

Since inception, Wind Point acquisitions have included Pacific Cycle (also maker of Schwinn bicycles), Bushnell Corporation, Bakery Chef,  Ames True Temper  Gehl Foods, Novolex, Argotec, Paragon Films, Valicor Environmental Services, Evans Food Group, A&R Logistics, Stir Foods, Kleinfelder Group, U.S. Nonwovens, and Tropicale Foods.
