Our Companies

When Bullpen Capital launched 10 years ago, our goal was to back overlooked entrepreneurs left behind by the latest Silicon Valley fads.  Since then, without compromising on that vision, we have invested in 100+ startups.

Our portfolio spans all categories (even those underappreciated ones), from fantasy sports to data center equipment to restaurant SaaS.  Our companies are started by diverse founders who discovered product-market fit early on and exhibit the perseverance to become market leaders through accelerating operating performance.
