About Steve
With over two decades of experience in commercial banking and financial services, I currently serve as VP of Affiliate Partnerships and Direct Sales at Backd. My focus is on forming strategic partnerships, leading a high performing direct sales team, and serving high growth businesses based in the US. Backd provides innovative funding solutions to small to lower middle market companies. My team collaborates with banks, M&A firms, PE/VC firms, fractional CFOs and other business advisory firms, to empower businesses that may not fit conventional lending profiles. Companies that require short-to-medium-term funding to bridge equity or fund collateral shortfalls are common use cases. Our funding solutions are non-dilutive, making Backd\'s funding products the \"go-to\" solution for early stage/high growth companies that are sensitive to equity dilution. Backd\'s funding solutions can be used to complement senior-secured credit structures or as a standalone funding solution. At Backd, we prioritize speed to market and certainty of execution. As a fintech, we have a streamlined application and due diligence process which allow us to quickly assess and close deals in less than one week in most cases.We are actively seeking strategic partnerships to support our growing book of business. Please reach out to me directly to learn more.
