Your Dream. Your Journey. Your Company. We have the most flexible capital for software and information services companies in the industry, and let you decide the timeline and future of your company. We founded Susquehanna Growth Equity in 2006 to create a different kind of investor: a firm that itself is funded by entrepreneurs who understand the ups-and-downs of operating a business; a firm that has no fixed time horizons and is not subject to the vagaries of the private equity fundraising cycle; a firm that can be flexible in the types of deals it does, the securities it holds, and the risks it takes; and a firm which will help strategically without forcing its operational playbook on its operators. All our capital comes from Susquehanna International Group, one of the world’s largest privately-held financial services firms. Founded in 1987, Susquehanna has grown to over 3,200 employees across the globe, while continuing to be owned and operated by its founders. We are proud to be a part of one of the biggest bootstrapped, entrepreneurial success stories in history.

Ground Up Ventures focuses on seed and pre seed companies. We help the next generation of world changing entrepreneurs build their companies from the ground up.
