    • The entire team at Thornton Capital is remarkably responsive, regardless of the size of the issue.

      Kyle Green - CEO, Handle

    • During due diligence, the depth of questions and corresponding thoughts from Matt, Tom, and Lauren made it clear that they are committed partners as we grow our business.

      Sean O’Leary - CEO, edjsports

    • We most appreciate Thornton Capital’s extensive knowledge of growing a business and creating value for the business.  Taking a company from “idea” to  a “business” is extremely difficult.  Everybody has an idea, but converting that idea to a business is rare.  Thornton Capital has the knowledge to take an idea to a business and has done so many times.

      Ben Morris - CEO, FuelFox

    • It was obvious I was dealing with a fellow entrepreneur and a successful business owner.  Matt is not a spreadsheet jockey – he’s the real deal.

      Aaron Gani - Founder & CEO, BehaVR, LLC
