Alpha Partners operates as a pro rata growth investor focused on co-investing with early-stage VCs in their most promising follow-on opportunities. The firm was founded on the insight that early-stage VCs lack reserve capital to double down on their best companies, a problem founder Steve Brotman experienced firsthand with investments like Medidata and LivePerson. By sharing economics with seed and early-stage investors, Alpha enables them to participate in growth rounds while providing LPs access to derisked, top-tier growth-stage companies positioned closer to exit.
