Investor Details Founded: 1980
Established in 1980, Western Technology Investment (WTI) is a pioneering venture debt firm that has been providing capital to startups since 1980. With a focus on minimizing dilution, WTI has supported over 1,400 companies across major innovation sectors. The firm is known for its flexible, scalable, and partner-driven approach, offering debt capital from the seed stage through to public listing. WTI is currently investing from its 11th institutional fund, backed by institutional LPs including endowments, non-profits, academic institutions, and select family offices.
WTI offers venture debt to startups, providing a flexible and founder-friendly form of capital that supports growth with less dilution. Their approach includes no 'Material Adverse Changes' clauses, no 'Insolvency Default' clauses, no 'Investor Support' covenants, and no subjective requirements, ensuring startups have access to capital when they need it most.
In August 2022, P10, Inc. announced an agreement to acquire WTI, recognizing its position as a market leader in venture debt. This acquisition aims to further deepen WTI's investment into venture-backed businesses and build upon its position of market leadership and innovation.
