Southlake, TX: August 19, 2025 – Charlesbank Capital Partners is pleased to announce a growth investment in CENTEGIX (or the “Company”), an Atlanta-based provider of innovative workplace safety solutions that empower and protect people every day. The investment aims to accelerate CENTEGIX’s platform development and geographic expansion while supporting new use cases across K-12 educational sites, as well as healthcare, government and commercial facilities. Through the transaction, existing shareholders including  affiliates of Gauge Capital and the founding management team, will roll over a portion of their proceeds. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. 

 

The proprietary CENTEGIX Safety Platform^TM leverages wearable technology, multi-sensory alerts, dynamic digital mapping and centralized coordination tools to enable fast, effective response to emergencies from the everyday to the extreme.  The platform compresses emergency response times with strong resiliency, reliability and ease of use, resulting in very high customer retention and consistent expansion across its installed base. 

 

Charlesbank’s investment builds on its thematic focus on safety and security solutions and is supported by prior experience in the K-12 education, healthcare and government end-markets such as Galls and Tecomet. The firm’s belief in the CENTEGIX Safety Platform solution is grounded in a conviction that physical safety, real-time intelligence and digital coordination systems will be increasingly critical across both public and private environments.

 

“We believe CENTEGIX is well-positioned to capture a substantial market opportunity, sitting at the intersection of scalable technology, clear market need and measurable customer impact,” said Ryan Carroll, Managing Director at Charlesbank.

 

Mike McGuire, Principal at Charlesbank, added, “The Company has built a differentiated product suite and a strong foundation for growth. We are excited to partner with the management team on this next chapter.”

 

Charlesbank’s investment will support key growth initiatives, including funding for product innovation and the expansion of go-to-market capabilities to drive continued growth across the K–12 sector, as well as healthcare, government and commercial end-markets. The existing management team will continue to lead the business, supported by additional strategic and operational resources from Charlesbank.

 

“We invested in CENTEGIX with the goal of building a differentiated, multi-vertical public safety platform,” said Tom McKelvey, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at Gauge Capital. “Over the last four years, the Company has seen significant growth and nationwide adoption of its public safety platform, protecting people in schools, healthcare facilities, government buildings and public spaces.
