ETL Capital gives accredited investors access to PUCP - grade Series A enterprise deals - curated by Ellen Damaso, structured for $5-25K check sizes, and powered by Plus Ultra Capital Partners' institutional - caliber diligence.
ABOUT ETL CAPITAL
Venture-grade access. Without the venture-fund minimum.
PUCP — Plus Ultra Capital Partners — invests $5–20M into post-PMF enterprise SaaS
companies alongside institutional family offices and RIAs. Their minimum check size is
$100–200K. ETL Capital changes that.
As the ETL Capital syndicate, we pool accredited investor capital into a single SPV that
invests alongside PUCP as one LP — giving you access to the same deal flow, the same
diligence, and the same Series A terms, at $5–25K.
01
institutional deal flow
Every deal in ETL Capital syndicate is sourced, diligenced and structured by Plus Ultra Capital Partners - a Palo Alto-based VC Platform investing in post-PMF enterprise SaaS at the Series A stage. You don't bet on a hunch. You invest alongside a fund that's already done the work
Precision. Access. Alignment.
