Who We Are

col·lab·o·
ra·tion

Collab Capital was born from our own entrepreneurial journeys. As founders who have built and exited companies, we understand firsthand that funding is just one part of the story.
We aren't just investors. We are partners who have been in the seat.
We provide strategic guidance, access to trusted networks, and an investment model that allows founders to define success on their own terms.
