Brian R. Gaister

Co-Founder & Partner, SaaS Ventures

About

Brian R. Gaister co-founded and operates three interconnected platforms—Pennington Partners (multifamily office), SaaS Ventures (B2B SaaS VC), and PTM Partners (Opportunity Zone real estate)—that are designed to co-invest together, giving entrepreneurial families access to institutional-quality direct deals alongside his own capital. He focuses SaaS Ventures on second- and third-tier North American cities outside major tech hubs, believing there is a relative dearth of capital in these overlooked markets where he can back strong B2B founders at lower entry valuations.
