CBC Partners is a VC fund in Bellevue focused on Sensor and Fitness. Founded in 2005 in Bellevue, Washington, CBC Partners have provided growth capital to businesses in a wide range of industries throughout the Pacific Northwest and beyond. Their debt investments have fueled their clients’ growth and ability to seek higher valuations in subsequent equity rounds, better positioning for events such as acquisitions,new product launches, new market entry or simply positioning them to transition to a new, traditional banking relationship.As a privately funded lender, they pride themselves on speed and flexibility as the needs of no two companies are alike. In most situations, they provide potential clients an answer in a matter of days, not weeks or months. While they are more flexible than traditional banks, CBC Partners do maintain strict lending criteria.The company's typical clients range in sales up to $50 million and are not in distress. They are either profitable or can demonstrate a clear path to profitability. Double-digit growth is very common among its borrowers who can also provide both company collateral and personal guarantees. They are strictly a commercial and industrial lender and do not cater to real estate markets.
