Investor Relations
Managing capital, from fundraising to financial operations to investor relations, is mission-critical, but most private companies don't have the scale to justify a full-time team. Founders end up doing it themselves, at the expense of the business.
Backpocket is building a new kind of services firm: an embedded in-house capital team for private companies. We work alongside you continuously, not transactionally, and treat your cap table as our own.
Instead of doing all the work themselves, founders get one partner across the full capital lifecycle. Raise faster, operate cleaner, and keep existing investors close between rounds.
Track Record
Client Portfolio
Includes select rounds worked on by Backpocket professionals, some active and some closed. This is not a comprehensive list and reflects only engagements we are able to disclose, as some companies prefer not to publicly announce their deals.

Fund coming soon
Working alongside founders as their fundraising team puts us closer to the best companies than most investors ever get. We see the data, meet the team, and build conviction from the inside, so we back the ones we already know well.
We invest through three vehicles: an early-stage syndicate, select coinvestments alongside top-tier venture sponsors, and a dedicated Backpocket fund launching soon.
Founders get a capital partner who already knows the business, an active network of operators behind every check, and the same team across fundraising, finance, IR, and ownership.
