Alex Gladstein

Founder & CEO, Sphere

It was clear from the start that David, while pleasant is deeply purposeful and intentional. Fairbridge has been an ever-present thought partner, particularly in designing new products and in fundraising.

Nate Maingi

Co-Founder & CEO, TherapyIQ

Fairbridge sets a new benchmark for investor engagement. During the holidays, I needed assistance, a time when most investors, aren’t readily responsive. David not only replied within minutes and addressed my questions thoroughly, I learned he was overseas!

Ema Rouf

Co-Founder & CEO, PaveFi

We founded PaveFi based on Adazza which we built for Africa. David quickly understood our crossover idea and helped translate it to US investors and customers. Fairbridge is the ideal partner for founders building crossover global models.
