Bridgham & Company, LLC is a private holding company. It owns and capitalizes a small number of firms in cybersecurity and applied research, keeps them under one name, and holds them for the long term.
Our Purpose
Anyone who has built a good firm knows the quiet worry that comes with it: that one day it will be sold, stripped for parts, or simply forgotten. Bridgham & Company was formed to hold. It owns and capitalizes a small number of operating companies, keeps each under the family name, and gives each the time it needs to become the trusted house in its field.
