“It was important for us to find a partner that not only understood our industry but our business goals and unique needs as well. From the very beginning, the team at Vistara took the time to get to know our company in depth and worked closely with us to put together a flexible financing solution that gave us the runway we needed to continue our growth while enabling us to keep all our long and short term financing and strategic options open, leading to our successful exit. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome, and we believe that our partnership with Vistara was a key factor in our success. Thank you to the entire Vistara team for their support and expertise.”

“Vistara has delivered on its promise of flexible growth capital, support, and partnership. We began discussions pre-COVID and closed mid-2020 with Vistara following through on original deal terms despite peak uncertainty in the world and markets. They later followed on with additional growth capital, showing conviction and trust in our team and strategy. Vistara has always been true to their word, a big advocate of our company, and a great partner overall.”

“Without a doubt, the team at Vistara are awesome and I would highly recommend them as a partner. Their insight on financing strategy – when and how to consider equity and debt at different points in our growth cycle – has been invaluable in furthering the development of You.i TV (acquired by WarnerMedia in Dec 2020). The ability to access varied types of capital through Vistara and their network is just one of the major benefits of working with them. As a Canadian fund complementing our US investment partners, we couldn’t have asked for a better match.”

“As a 5-time founder entrepreneur, I have worked with numerous investors at various stages. Vistara has been especially impressive in their involvement with Kore, initially as a lender and now as an equity partner. Its critical for founders to partner with investors that have had experience not only in good times, but ones that can deal with bumps in the road and help make important decisions in the best interests of the company. I look forward to a continued long term highly productive relationship with the team at Vistara as we execute on our ambitious growth objectives.”

“Vistara’s creativity and flexibility stood out as we looked at different capital sources to fund our growth plans.  They stepped up again as we completed an important acquisition soon into our relationship.  Vistara really embodies what it means to be a growth partner, and have proven to bring a lot of value to the table in addition to capital.”

“We bootstrapped InvestEdge (acquired by Featheringill Capital in Sep 2020) from an idea to servicing over $1 trillion in assets in 17 years. We considered equity financing but instead chose Vistara as our first external investor. They created tailored solution to our capital requirements without creating complex equity structures. Their debt funding was exactly what we needed to launch additional products and continue to grow rapidly. Vistara has been a great partner, providing guidance when needed and allowing us to transform our business.”

“Given their significant experience and exclusive focus on growth stage technology companies, we have found Vistara to be a very flexible and valuable partner as our business continues to scale. Unique amongst venture lenders, Vistara also helped us find and integrate a low-cost operating facility from a traditional bank that has significantly reduced our overall cost of capital. Their investment approach was closely aligned with our growth strategy, giving Mobify (acquired by Salesforce in Oct 2020) a firm base from which to focus on expanding our business.”

“Vistara has been a very helpful and collaborative investor and partner over a number of years, and has been an insightful contributor to the executive team and Board.  Zafin has used capital provided by Vistara in order to accomplish goals at different points in our growth cycle. Their patient and creative investment structures have enabled us to fund our continued accelerated growth path, while creating the flexibility to raise traditional equity capital at more optimal junctures and limit overall dilution.”

“When Getaround was looking to extend its runway and execute on several key strategic objectives prior to a Series C, Vistara really stepped up. The team was highly responsive in putting together a financing solution tailored to our needs and moving quickly to a close. This was vital to a company like ours in a dynamic sector as it allowed us to get back to running the business and prioritize the factors most important to our long-term growth. Vistara was a great partner, supporting our team and providing us with the flexibility required to grow our business at a key juncture in our evolution.”
