Resurge Growth Partners

Thanks to Julius Krätschmer for speaking to our Managing Partner Eyal. If you’re a founder and finding yourself seeking alternative funding to traditional Venture Capital and have reached €8m+ revenues, then please get in touch ! #venturegraduates #ventureequity

🚀 We’ve Launched! After navigating our own “startup” journey, we’re thrilled to finally share the launch of Resurge Growth Partners. Like many of the founders we’re here to support, we’ve faced the challenges of building something new - and today, we’re excited to get our mission out there. We started Resurge because we saw a gap in the funding landscape. The Venture Capital world is about unicorns and rapid scaling, but along the way, plenty of amazing companies can get left behind - not because they aren’t great, but because they don’t fit the typical VC growth playbook. Our mission is simple: to help these companies reach their true potential. We’re not just providing capital; we’re getting hands-on and offering the support needed to drive growth and profitability. We call this approach Venture Equity - a new path for "venture graduates" . If you’re leading a company with €8M+ in revenue, located in Europe, UK or Israel and can map a clear path to profitability, let’s connect. We know the challenges, and we’re here to help.📈 Check out our coverage with the help of Anne Sraders in Sifted! Oren Peleg Eyal Malinger Matt Jarmolkiewicz

Shifting Fundraising Landscape: Should Founders Reassess the VC Path? For years, founders were advised to raise enough capital to last 18-24 months. But recent data from Carta suggests this is changing. Time between rounds is growing, and raising capital is becoming more difficult and costly. The VC Playbook: A One-Size-Fits-All? When capital was cheap and abundant, founders gravitated toward a model focused on rapid, top-line growth. The trade-off? (Significant) dilution in exchange for the potential of eventually owning a small slice of a large business. But as the economic landscape shifts, several critical challenges have emerged: Extended Fundraising Cycles: The growing gap between rounds means founders need to stretch capital longer, which can stall growth or lead to decisions around scaling back which in itself may impact the ability to raise again. Rising scarcity and higher Costs of Capital: Inflationary years and market corrections have made it more expensive to achieve the same milestones. The capital that seemed sufficient two years ago may now fall short. And capital is harder to access. These realities prompt an important question: have founders fully assessed the risks associated with the venture capital path? The truth is, not every business can—or should—scale at the aggressive rates that VC funding demands. Is There Another Way? A more sustainable approach is gaining traction—one that prioritises profitability earlier in the life cycle. For many founders, this could lead to a better risk-adjusted outcome. The Transition Challenge However, shifting from VC to a more private equity-style model isn’t easy. Many companies find themselves stuck—too slow for VC but not profitable enough for PE. At Resurge Growth Partners, we’ve noticed that more and more founders are asking these very questions and re-evaluating which path is best. We’re increasingly working with founders who are navigating this shift, helping them find the right balance between growth and profitability. It’s a conversation worth having. #ventureequity #privateequity #venturecapital
