Matt Allen is a deeply experienced founder, operator, mentor and investor and the CEO of Tractor Ventures, a new vehicle for investing that offers founders revenue-based financing. Matt and his team at Tractor are grounded in the belief that secure founders make better business decisions; venture capital money simply isn’t the right fit for every business, so Tractor Ventures is filling a funding gap for ambitious founders who want to grow their businesses at a pace that suits them. As an angel investor, he has invested in 30+ companies as part of his portfolio, including BuildKite, Practice Ignition, Spaceship, Qsic, Kasada, Donesafe, Pin and Goterra. Matt is a three-times ex CTO, and led the VC portfolio at AWS for ANZ.
Angel investor and CEO of Tractor Ventures, Matt shares his loves (and loathings) in eCommerce retail.
These guys offer revenue based finance, meaning that they can provide capital in return for payback (with interest) once you start generating the returns from the investment.
