“I’ve worked with David Lambert for 6 years now. Upflex is my 5th startup over 18 years, so I know what a value-add investor looks like. David has always been a true partner: he’s honest (in both good and bad times), solution-driven, always available, and follows through on every commitment. I’m incredibly grateful to have RSCM as a partner.”
“Right Side Capital is 'founder-friendly' in the best way. They believe in our vision and trust us to execute, while always being ready to brainstorm, solve problems, or make key introductions. We wouldn’t be as successful without Right Side Capital as our partner!”
“Right Side Capital introduced us to the lead for our Seed round and drove many intros for our Series A and helped us fine-tune our sales and marketing processes, accelerating our growth beyond expectations. I couldn’t recommend them enough as a value-add investor on your cap table.”
"Right Side Capital is one of the best firms to partner with at the Pre-Seed stage. Their process is the most efficient we’ve experienced, and their hands-on support throughout our journey has been invaluable."
Laila Zemrani, CEO & Co-Founder at Fitnescity

“You know those negative stereotypes about VCs? Right Side Capital is the antidote. Their contrarian investment philosophy—maintaining optionality and operating prudently—sets them apart. When the opportunity to go big arises, they fully support the push for a massive exit. Despite making more investments than most VCs, they’ve been hugely accretive for us."
Tom Logan, CEO & Co-Founder at Cohley
“As a founder, you’re not just looking for money—you’re looking for 'smart' money. You want a partner who is always there to help your organization grow, from sales strategies to financial planning. That’s exactly what Right Side Capital offers. It’s been the best experience I’ve ever had with an early-stage partner!”
Mario Martinez Jr, Founder & CEO at Vengreso
“Right Side Capital Partners was invaluable in our journey. Their network secured our Series Seed funding, John's connections opened doors, Paul's go-to-market guidance boosted our win rates, and Dave’s operating expertise helped navigate CEO, legal, and finance challenges. They’re more than investors. They’re true partners."
Kelvin Johnson, Co-Founder & CEO at Brevity Pitch
