Notable quotes

We actually had a lot of partners try to double their investments with this fund. But we believe it's better to not raise as much as we can, but instead raise the right amount. We're still optimistic about the investment environment, but at the end of the day, these things tend to run in cycles, so we keep that in mind.

Chris Sugden · Crunchbase News — Edison Partners Closes On $365M Fund · 2018-10-11

When Edison first invested in SBT two and a half years ago, we saw a founder-led, capital-efficient business with a competitive moat that went deep on regulatory and carrier compliance and wide on financial industry solutions and third-party technology integrations. Since then, David and his team have consistently overperformed and further cemented unparalleled trust among regulators, carriers and leading financial institutions.

For 15 years, we have invested in the underserved part of growth equity: high-growth, capital-efficient technology companies, with revenue of $25M or less in geographies outside of Silicon Valley. We sized Edison IX to match our strategy, sector and company stage focus.
