Founders in 15 brings you insightful conversations with founders across various thriving industries, including Modern Infrastructure, Workflow Automation, FinTech, and HealthTech. 

In this episode, Lily Sarafan, co-founder and Executive Chair of Home Care Assistance (HCA) and operating partner of Cota Capital, sat down with Babak Poushanchi, co-founder and managing partner of Cota Capital, and Bobby Yazdani, co-founder and partner of Cota Capital to discuss the origins of Cota Capital.

“The firm of the future is a verticalized capital stack, so you don’t define yourself by saying ‘I am a private equity firm’. We will define ourselves by saying we are a capital provider and a research, knowledge, and operational expertise provider to companies in a certain thematic.”

– Babak Poushanchi
