ABOUT INITIO CAPITAL

Initio Capital is a strategic growth partner for founders, startups, and scaling businesses. We help companies raise capital, build revenue operations, hire, and run their back office, through our own services and a vetted partner network covering banking, accounting, payroll and HR.

THE ROLE

You run the room where Los Angeles founders show up. We would like to meet them.

WHAT YOU ACTUALLY DO

• Keep doing what you do: run the events, the cohort, the space, the program.
• When a founder in your orbit needs capital, bookkeeping, recruiting or operational help, introduce them to us.
• Give us the context you have that nobody else does.

WHO THIS IS FOR

• Accelerator and incubator program managers in Los Angeles.
• Founders of local startup meetups, pitch nights, and demo days.
• Community managers at coworking and innovation spaces.
• University entrepreneurship and tech transfer staff.

1 THING WE WANT TO BE CLEAR ABOUT

We are not asking you to sell your community to us or hand over a mailing list. The only introductions that work here are the ones you would have been happy to make anyway. If we ever put you in a position that is awkward with your community, we have done this wrong.

TIME COMMITMENT

A few hours a month, remote, on top of what you already do.

WHAT YOU ARE INTRODUCING FOUNDERS TO

So you know exactly what the meeting is about:

• Capital raising. Done-with-you and done-for-you programs, including syndicated funding through Initio's own fund. The program is built around putting founders in front of 40+ investor meetings.
• B2B go-to-market. Revenue operations, sales strategy, meeting generation, and lead qualification.
• Staffing and hiring. Recruiting support for founders building out the team.
• A partner network. Banking, accounting and back office, payroll and HR, through vetted partners including Brex, SE Financial, and Punch Financial.
• The founder community. Over $5 million in startup discounts, a private founder network, and a venture score on their profile.

Most scout and referral programs pay you nothing until a deal closes. This one pays on the meeting.

No salary, no draw, no quota. You are paid on activity, not only on outcomes.

HOW TO APPLY

Send us 1 paragraph: which founders in Los Angeles you already know, and 1 company you would introduce us to this month. That is the whole application. No resume needed.
