Investment Thesis

Sidekick Partners combines private equity discipline with venture capital innovation to deliver exceptional results for founders and investors. They believe in empowering founders by elevating their ideas rather than overshadowing them, working alongside entrepreneurs as true partners rather than distant investors. Their approach focuses on identifying opportunities with near-term profit potential and long-term value creation, emphasizing sustainable growth, operational support, and strategic collaboration.

What Sets Them Apart

  • Founder-led capital base - 'its base of capital is almost all other founders' (per Ring founder Jamie Siminoff)
  • Extensive network of entrepreneurs, professional investors, and industry executives from leading firms (CBRE, Harvard Business School, Google, Goldman Sachs, Stanford, Bain Capital, MIT, Summit Partners, Meta, Snapchat, Warby Parker, Carlyle Group)
  • Founder-friendly approach with emphasis on being a 'true value-add partner' beyond just capital
  • Proven track record: 100+ portfolio companies with $10B+ in enterprise value created; top quartile performance across fund vintages
  • Hybrid investment approach combining near-term execution discipline with long-term value creation
  • Community-centric model facilitating collaboration between portfolio companies and network members
