Investment thesis

TCP believes the undercapitalization of post-seed companies in Baltimore City is an attractive investment opportunity, driven by the region's concentration of talent in edtech, healthcare, and cybersecurity, technologies emerging from research universities and federal labs, and state funding resources that de-risk commercialization. Through its Propel Baltimore Fund, TCP backs high-growth, scalable, capital-efficient technology companies located in or committed to Baltimore City. It invests in early-revenue companies typically via convertible debt or preferred stock, acting as an active minority investor that leads or co-invests and usually takes a board observer seat, while excluding biotech, medical device, and real estate.
