Investment thesis

WTI pioneered venture debt to address a capital gap in the market, providing debt financing to technology startups from seed stage through public listing. The firm emphasizes a partner-driven, non-'sales/credit' culture where partners make timely decisions. Its facilities are designed to be flexible and scalable across a company's lifecycle, avoiding restrictive terms such as material adverse change clauses, insolvency default clauses, and investor support covenants. WTI positions its capital as spendable runway that gives companies room to maneuver through changing business conditions. It is currently investing out of its 11th institutional fund, backed by institutional LPs including endowments, non-profits, academic institutions, and select family offices.
