What DigiCap does

DigiCap (legal name Digital Capital Partners, LLC) is a Bethesda, Maryland-based private direct investment firm founded in 2023 by Jay Sunny Bajaj, applying a 4Cs investment philosophy (Company, Culture, Concept, Capital) to technology and IT services companies. The firm acquires and operates wholly-owned portfolio companies rather than running a traditional fund vehicle, leveraging founder track record that includes a prior exit of Digital Management, Inc. (DMI) to OceanSound Partners in 2021 at approximately $500 million in revenue.

The portfolio centers on Digital Compass (formerly Govplace, acquired February 2025 and rebranded July 2025), a full-lifecycle IT services partner operating five unified service pillars — Procurement, Implementation, Management, Security, and Optimization — serving federal, state and local government, and commercial enterprises, with a 30-plus-year legacy of delivering over $1 billion in technology across 20 federal agencies. A second portfolio company, PAIRIN (acquired May 2025), adds an AI-powered workforce development software platform (My Journey) that delivers AI-personalized career guidance and skill-development workflows to workforce agencies, governments, and educational institutions.

DigiCap's revenue model relies on equity returns from portfolio companies rather than disclosed management fees; the firm monetizes through capital appreciation and exits while providing strategic support, follow-on capital, and acquisition roll-up support to operating companies. The go-to-market is relationship-driven deal sourcing, and the leadership team — Bajaj (CEO), Michael Altshuler (CFO), and Erin Miles (Director of Administration) — is small and concentrated, with all three having previously worked together at DMI.
