Alpha Partners was born out of Steve Brotman’s personal experience as an emerging, early-stage VC.

He wanted to double-down on his best companies — Medidata and LivePerson, both of which eventually IPO’d — but his firm didn’t have the reserve capital to do so. When he asked his early-stage VC peers, he realized that they all had the same growth capital constraint. With that insight, and with backing of Pritzker Group and a handful of family offices, Alpha became the first pro rata growth fund in 2013. Since then, we’ve become an institutional RIA (fund) with over $400 million in assets under management.
