“We have a unique perspective and advantage as a strategic investor focused on banking technology,” said Carey Ransom, Managing Director at BankTech Ventures. “As the industry continues to see more capital flow into fewer bigger funds, we’re proud of the focus and value we bring to our ecosystem of more than 125 community and regional banks, as well as our portfolio companies. The investments we’ve made over the past two quarters reflect that – innovative solutions to the problems that are impacting banks the most today.”

Utilizing the team’s robust industry expertise, BankTech Ventures evaluated more than 1,000 companies and conducted nearly as many calls with founders in 2025. The team is currently on track for even more in 2026. Ultimately, investments were made to companies providing key technologies to enable deeper levels of automation, personalization, speed and compliance.

“Working with the BankTech Ventures team is a no-brainer for any startup building impactful solutions for financial institutions,” said John Sun, CEO and Co-Founder of SpringLabs. “Their depth of expertise, broad network and true understanding of the needs of community and regional banks have been invaluable to my team as we advance on our mission to improve the quality, consistency and scalability of compliance across financial services. Their backing serves as a vote of confidence in our product and vision, and we’re thrilled to continue this partnership.”

“Community banks don’t need more technology vendors, they need partners who understand what they are actually trying to solve,” said Brian Hamilton, President of Coastal Community Bank and General Partner at BankTech Ventures. “What BankTech Ventures gets right is that the companies they back aren’t just innovative, they’re relevant. As a General Partner at BankTech Ventures, a bank director and founder myself, the ability to provide a seat at the table with the companies shaping the future of our industry, and the ability to learn from and deploy these solutions before they’re widely adopted, is a real competitive advantage for any bank that’s part of the BankTech ecosystem.”
