Morris Industries Invests in Series B Round of Strive Enterprises

LEXINGTON, Ky.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Morris Industries is proud to announce its strategic investment in Strive Enterprises. Morris Industries participated in the $30-million Series B fundraising round led by Cantor Fitzgerald and included participation from Deason Capital Services, LLC, Narya Capital, and several prominent entrepreneurs.

Strive Enterprises is set to launch Strive Wealth Management, an extension of their already successful asset management business. Strive CEO Matt Cole expressed his excitement about the future of the company:

“The success of Strive’s asset management business has been extraordinary, growing to over $1.6 billion in assets under management less than two years after the launch of our first ETF. Off the back of this momentum, Strive will be launching a direct wealth management offering focused exclusively on maximizing value for our clients. Many Americans are hungry for an authentic and unapologetic embrace of capitalism, meritocracy, and innovation, and that’s what we strive to deliver.”

As Strive continues to expand, the company is actively evaluating potential acquisitions of independent Registered Investment Advisors (RIAs) and wealth management advisor teams to join their dynamic growth.

Nate Morris, Chairman and CEO of Morris Industries, remarks, "Morris Industries is thrilled to invest in Strive Enterprises during this pivotal stage of their growth. We believe in Strive’s potential to revolutionize the wealth management industry, and we are excited to support their continued success and expansion."

Strive was co-founded in 2022 by Vivek Ramaswamy with the goal of restoring shareholder primacy in the capital markets. Seed investors include Peter Thiel, Bill Ackman, Cantor Fitzgerald, Founders Fund, and Narya Capital.
