Broadband Capital Investments, LLC is a Florida-based family office investment sponsor, founded in 2017 and headquartered in West Palm Beach, Florida, that opportunistically deploys equity capital into growth-oriented private companies. Its most recent and highest-profile deal is leading the $15M Series A in Ukrainian drone-autonomy company Swarmer (announced September 2025); earlier activity by the firm's principal includes investments in Zynerba Pharmaceuticals, Vroom.com, and Montrose Environmental Group.
