About Spencer Farrell

As Partner at Meritas Equity Partners, I source, structure, and raise capital for real estate and private equity investments that strengthen businesses and drive long-term value across Upstate New York. I work directly with management teams to build systems, scale operations, and create sustainable success — the kind that benefits owners, employees, and investors alike.My background spans more than a decade across SaaS, consulting, and investment — including serving as Chief Revenue Officer for a software company, where I led strategy, sales, and growth. That experience shapes how I invest and advise today: data-driven, collaborative, and focused on measurable outcomes.I’m proud to call Buffalo home, and I’m passionate about using private capital and business leadership to help this region grow stronger. Always open to connecting with business owners, executives, and investors who share that vision — whether you’re scaling a company, exploring partnerships, or looking for your next investment opportunity.
