I’m looking forward to attending IDGA’s Future Fires and Munitions Summit on January 20-21, 2027, in Arlington, VA.

The summit will bring together senior military and industry leaders to discuss how fires capabilities are evolving to meet the demands of the future battlefield, from long-range and rocket artillery to mortars, fire control and next-generation munitions.

I’m particularly looking forward to hearing the latest perspectives from U.S. Army and allied leaders, sharing ideas with others across the fires community, and making new connections along the way.

I hope to see you there.

No matter how good the numbers look, these are 5 reasons we don’t invest.

1️⃣ I don’t like, admire and trust the owner.

Buying a company is like entering a marriage. I broke this rule once. I knew it was a mistake before I signed, and it took me over a year to get out of it. No license, no opportunity, nothing is worth breaking that rule.

2️⃣ There’s no talent below the top.

I always ask: are there enough great people in this business to keep it performing for years? If every decision runs through one or two people at the top, the business doesn’t have real value.

3️⃣ It won’t be around in 10–20 years.

We plan to own our companies forever. If an industry might only last 10 years, owning it forever is impossible. If you can’t answer this question, don’t buy the business.

4️⃣ It’s boom-or-bust.

Housing. Mortgages. Oil and gas. In a good year there’s nothing but money. In the off years you can lose money for a long stretch. If it’s your only company, that’s very hard to survive. I want a business that stays steady through every cycle.

5️⃣ It has no repeat customers.

The first question isn’t how big a business is. It’s how durable it is. Customers who come back again and again are what make it durable. If you have to win every customer from scratch, you’re starting over every month.

Price matters. These matter more. by @cal.siambi

Vanguard Frontier Capital is now operational.

We acquire controlling stakes in operationally strong businesses across East Africa’s mid-market — food processing, logistics and cold chain, and distributed solar energy — in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and Rwanda.

If you own a business with an enterprise value between KES 600M and KES 4B and are considering your options, or if you are an investor aligned with our thesis, we are open to a confidential conversation.

No intermediary required. Reach us directly: vanguardfrontiercapital@gmail.com
