Founders Equity Partners

About The Fund

Founders Equity Partners is a venture capital firm that was established in 2015 and operates out of San Francisco, California. This investor specializes in providing secondary transaction solutions within the technology industry. Their investment strategy is designed to target technology-oriented businesses, with a diverse interest in sectors such as Software (Web Marketplace Saas and the like), IT and TMT (Technology, Media, and Telecommunications), Business Solutions, FinTech and Financial Services, Hardware and Manufacturing, CleanTech, HealthTech and Fitness, Blockchain and Cryptocurrencies, Food & Beverage, and Logistics and Distribution. They aim to create value by making direct secondary investments in these companies, principally by purchasing equity stakes from company founders and early investors, who may be seeking liquidity prior to a company sale or IPO. By doing so, Founders Equity Partners provides a unique niche service where they offer an exit strategy to founders and early shareholders while enabling the companies to continue their growth trajectories without disruptions. The fund has delineated its investment limits clearly, with a minimum as well as a maximum investment threshold of $100,000,000, suggesting they commit significant capital and are likely targeting later-stage transactions. They position themselves as specialists in early acquisitions and the secondary market, offering a distinctive blend of expertise and capital to support companies and entrepreneurs in the sectors they cover.
