What our clients have to say
“Lighter Capital opened up such a fast path to growth for Style Arcade, and the team has been awesome to work with. In the tech space where speed matters most, it’s having a seamless process and a strong partnership – that’s invaluable.”
Michaela Wessels
CEO & Co-Founder
“Lighter Capital helped us get the funding we needed at a critical time in our growth, allowing us to continue to aid schools around Australia with their everyday administrative tasks. Working with the team at Lighter Capital has been amazing. Our second round of non-dilutive funding was finalized within a week of the initial discussion.”
Blake Garrett
CEO
“The U.S. venture capital firms we’re engaging with love our model and the success we’ve had in Australia and the UK. Demonstrating similar success in the US market is our last hurdle prior to our first institutional funding round. While we are on our way with UCLA as our first US client, the Lighter Capital funding will help us bridge through that transition. We’re thrilled that we’ve been able to secure the funding we need to fuel our US growth without diluting our existing shareholders. Lighter Capital not only brings friendly financing, but they provide valuable connections in both Australia and the U.S.”
