Swivel Lands $8M Series A Round

Also participating in the round is JLL Spark, a strategic global venture fund investing in startups transforming commercial real estate through technology. The financing will be used to fund Swivel's continued nationwide expansion and for further investment in its agile leasing platform and tenant-broker partner program.

"The future of real estate will continue to be defined by the demand for flexibility," said Jim Breyer, founder and CEO, Breyer Capital. "Swivel is positioned to redefine the entire office leasing experience for startups and established companies alike by eliminating upfront costs and move-out penalties. Swivel brings an innovative fintech-based approach that allows landlords to streamline leasing through terms that deliver the value of flexibility to tenants, as well as their investors."

Austin-based Swivel enables pre-qualified member companies to contract with its landlord partners for creative, turnkey office space on flexible terms with little or no up-front capital expenditure and no lease lock-in. Landlords use Swivel's agile leasing platform to backstop their leases for member companies, eliminating the risk and uncertainty usually associated with offering more flexible lease terms.

Since its network launch in 2019, Swivel has signed up more than 30 landlords representing more than 150 properties across Austin, Dallas and Houston. Backed by Swivel, these landlords have consummated agile leases with a wide variety of both venture-backed tech startups, as well as multinational companies that require flexibility for their satellite offices.

Companies can learn about agile office leasing directly at swivel.work, as well as through its growing network of authorized tenant broker partners. Find Swivel on LinkedIn and Twitter: @SwivelWork, and follow Swivel's blog to stay on top of company developments, news, events and happenings.
