Investment thesis
Channel Equity Partners provides early growth capital to B2B software companies that fall between traditional venture capital and growth equity. These are businesses considered not a fit for VC and too early for most growth equity firms. The firm invests across the United States and Canada, emphasizing a partnership-oriented approach with founders. Its own founders, having worked together since 2015 and being founders themselves, stress genuine respect and support for the founders and teams they back.
