i80 Group
i80 Group is an investment firm designed to drive the innovation economy forward by empowering growth. We typically work with companies to provide financings starting at $25M and scaling significantly thereafter. Our capital is a complement to venture capital where equity is used to finance the underlying operating business and our debt is used to cost-effectively originate or acquire assets. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all structure, we design bespoke solutions specific to the unique needs of our partners.
