Tacora Capital Funds the Balance Sheet Behind the App
The Austin lender looks past the software pitch and into the pile of loans, contracts and policies underneath it. That focus has helped Tacora turn a quiet corner of venture finance into a roughly $1.4 billion platform.
PvX Partners
PvX Partners is a Singapore-based fintech that provides non-dilutive user acquisition (UA) financing to mobile game studios and consumer app companies. Instead of equity or traditional debt, PvX funds a portion of a company's monthly marketing spend based on the historical performance of user cohorts, sharing downside risk if those cohorts underperform. Its financing is powered by Lambda, a proprietary machine-learning underwriting and intelligence platform, allowing profitable apps to scale user acquisition budgets without giving up ownership.
Andrew Curtis
Andrew Curtis is the CEO of Clearco, the Toronto-based fintech that fronts cash to ecommerce brands without taking their equity. A two-decade Wall Street veteran of leveraged credit and restructurings - with stops at Merrill Lynch and Lazard Freres - he arrived as an advisor in 2022, took the top job in early 2023, and steered the once-troubled company through a recapitalization and a ground-up rebuild. Under him, Clearco has deployed billions across thousands of brands, tripled funding in 2024, and relaunched a platform he pitches as 'capital that thinks like a founder.'
