Overview
What they do
Founded in 2015 as AVX Partners by Austin Ventures veteran Chris Pacitti, the firm was built to fund the "marginalized middle"-capital-efficient software companies that have outgrown regional seed funds but are too small or geographically disconnected to attract coastal mega-funds. Rebranded as Elsewhere Partners in 2017, the firm has evolved from a growth capital provider into an early-stage private equity firm. They are distinctive for their low-risk/high-reward transformational playbook, which pairs transitional capital with a deep bench of seasoned Operating Advisors who often step into executive roles to help portfolio companies optimize their go-to-market strategies and scale toward a later-stage private equity buyout.

What they look for
Elsewhere Partners focuses on unlocking the full potential of capital-efficient B2B software companies that have proven products but are constrained by suboptimized go-to-market practices. They specifically target the "Elsewhere Outliers"-companies located outside of traditional venture capital hubs like Silicon Valley.
