Tower Arch Capital Named to Inc.’s 2025 List of Founder-Friendly Investors for the Seventh Consecutive Year

Tower Arch Capital has been named to Inc.’s 2025 list of Founder-Friendly Investors, honoring the private equity and venture capital firms with the best track records of success in partnering with founder-led companies. Tower Arch Capital is proud to be recognized all seven years since the list’s inception.

The prestigious list celebrates investors that believe in backing founder-led businesses and helping them thrive. All companies on the list have successful track records of collaboration and remaining actively involved with the businesses they invest in.

“Raising capital is no small feat for today’s entrepreneurs. That’s why discovering investors who offer more than just financial backing—those who bring mentorship, resources, and a true spirit of partnership to your growth journey—is both rare and invaluable,” says Bonny Ghosh, editorial director at Inc. “The 2025 Founder-Friendly Investors are collaborators and dedicated to helping their portfolio companies succeed.”

Tower Arch Capital Partner and co-founder, David Topham, shared, “Seven years of recognition is a milestone that reflects both the hard work of our team and the trust placed in us by family and founder-led businesses. Our focus has always been on helping entrepreneurs accelerate growth while honoring the values that made their businesses successful. We are proud of what we’ve achieved together and excited for the opportunities ahead.”

To compile the list, Inc. went straight to the source: entrepreneurs who have sold to private equity and venture capital firms. Founders filled out a questionnaire about their experiences partnering with private equity, venture capital, and debt firms and shared data on how their companies have grown during these partnerships.
