Leatherwood Capital is not a fund with a deployment clock. As a family office, we take a long view, work in concentrated partnerships, and stay involved after the check.
How we get involved
Growth Equity
Startups
In larger transactions we work alongside established growth-equity partners to support and build great teams. Typical check: $500k to $1.5M, as part of a larger round.
We back great founders where we have cultural alignment. We can lead when the structure and fit are right, or participate in a round. Typical check: $50k to $250k.
Royalty Finance
If the company has meaningful revenue but is not a fit for traditional debt or equity, royalty-based finance (RBF) may be a fit. Typical structure: $200k to $500k.
Growth Partner
We are deeply rooted and invested in the Pacific Northwest. Our principal is now located in Austin, Texas. Leatherwood's growth-stage portfolio companies have offices across the West Coast, with expansion east as far as Kansas City.
Andrew Beldin
Andrew Beldin manages Leatherwood Capital. He is a principal in the office and stays close to the companies after the check is written. He is a pilot and a fly angler, a father of two girls, and spends significant time on fisheries management and conservation. He holds an MBA from Willamette University.
