About
EMPOWERED VENTURES IS AN EMPLOYEE-OWNED HOLDING COMPANY
TELLING OUR STORY TO INSPIRE YOURS
OUR PLACE TO TELL OUR EMPLOYEE OWNERS' STORIES.
PEOPLE POWER BUSINESS POTENTIAL.
Spreading the power of employee ownership across America and beyond.
Employee-owned businesses tend to be places where culture truly matters. They also tend to be places where employees are empowered to grow and where there is a shared sense of reward. Leading in an employee-owned company is like leading with tailwinds rather than headwinds. Embedded in the leader-employee relationship is an inherently aligned interest. Employees can really think like an owner because they believe what they do matters. They see that it does.

ownership journey
Part One
"Changed the whole dynamics of the company."
TVF, our flagship company, was sold to its employees in 2010. Hear from the employees who lived that experience, and what they have to say about it today.
Part Two
"Change the landscape for how business succession takes place."
TVF’s substantial growth led to a new vision – Empowered Ventures, a diversified and acquisitive ESOP-owned holding company, thereby giving business sellers a unique and compelling option that values their legacy and employees.
Part Three
"We truly want the employee to feel empowered."
Firstar Precisions’ leadership and employee owners share why Empowered Ventures was the right next step for the business. Sometimes it’s as simple as a monkey on the back of a t-shirt.
AND BEYOND
"OUR JOURNEY CONTINUES."
With the acquisition of Paramount Plastics and more, our journey continues.
