S Squared is a fundamentally-driven investment management firm focused on technology equities.

Empire Capital Management manages a long/short equity hedge fund that focuses on the technology sector. Empire Capital is a growth investor and generally looks to invest in companies with attractive top or bottom-line metrics. Empire Capital operates two similar, but distinct, strategies: the “Core Strategy” (comprised of Core Onshore and Core Offshore) and the “Enhanced Strategy” (comprised of Enhanced Master, Enhanced Onshore and Enhanced Offshore). While both strategies generally hold the same securities, the Enhanced Strategy generally operates with more leverage than the Core Strategy. Although each portfolio’s actual investments are based on Empire Capital’s assessment of current market opportunities, Empire Capital’s investable universe primarily focuses on long and short investments in technology company equities and their related derivatives (i.e. options). In addition, Empire Capital invests in other market securities, which may include ETFs, market indices, ADRs, IPOs, secondaries, customized swap baskets, and PIPEs. In addition, Empire Capital may periodically hold warrants, convertible securities, preferred securities or debt and the Core Onshore Strategy (specifically) may transact in the securities of private companies. Empire Capital seeks to mitigate market risk by shorting market securities and companies whose current product portfolio, market positioning and/or fundamentals are negatively impacting their operating performance or whose valuation and/or technical profile is unattractive. In addition, they use market instruments (such as ETFs, market indices, swaps and/or options) to manage risk, volatility and market exposure. The portfolios are generally diversified across market-caps and technology sub-sectors (include semiconductors, semiconductor capital equipment, consumer hardware, consumer software, enterprise software, internet, storage, networking, clean tech, media tech, security, services, wireless and enterprise hardware).

Shannon River manages the private funds by adopting a sector specific long/short equity investment strategy, focused on Technology, Media and Telecommunications.

The firm endeavors to maintain a disciplined value approach with a focus on asset value and cash generation potential.
