2022 was a big year for Founderpath – we deployed $95m+ to Bootstrapped and capital efficient SaaS founders to help them grow without taking equity.
Thrilled to be named Tekpon’s best FinTech Software for 2022! Tekpon is a software marketplace designed to end software waste by helping companies choose the best tools for their needs.
Our mission is to help Bootstrapped SaaS founders grow without having to choose between capital and keeping control. This year we raised $10m in equity from top SaaS CEO’s and another $140m in capital to lend out (the fund).
For every SaaS founder who raises, there are 1,000 quietly bootstrapping, creating jobs, building a life and team they love. With the new fund, we’ve taken a major step to creating an “alternative path” for those SaaS founders who don’t want to go the VC route.
And we’re just getting started.
