They offer a range of debt financing solutions tailored to meet the strategic goals of promising, high-growth companies.

They are known for specializing in Seed and Series B financing stages, with a minimum investment of $10 million, a maximum investment limit of $50 million, and a sweet spot investment size of $25 million. By providing senior and subordinated debt as well as limited partner participations, and on occasions, direct equity investments, Runway Growth supports its portfolio companies in their journey towards increasing market penetration and achieving long-term success. Their approach involves partnering with venture capital firms, private equity sponsors, investment banks, and commercial banks to structure financing solutions that are non-dilutive or minimally dilutive for the borrowers.
