Our Story

Our Legacy

We weren't always known as B:Side

However, our mission to foster the economic growth of diverse small businesses remains the same and serves as the foundation for everything we do. For over 35 years, our organization was known as Colorado Lending Source. We established our reputation as a stalwart supporter of banks and small business owners alike.

 

In 2021, we rebranded as B:Side Capital and B:Side Fund to reflect our expanded focus, values, and offerings. Today, our legacy lives on through our mission with renewed energy to reach underserved small businesses.

The Story behind our name

Why B:Side?

Some of us are old enough to remember the days before streaming music or even CDs. Yes, we’re talking about the age of vinyl records and cassette tapes….

 

The A-side always featured the popular radio-friendly hits that we all knew and loved.

 

The B-side, however, was where the deep cuts resided. These were the songs written for true fans who had the patience and dedication to look a little deeper.

 

We like to think of ourselves as true fans of small business. We relish the opportunity to look at the B-sides of the business world, those companies that might not always be the bank-friendly slam dunk. We go deeper and find those hidden gems who would otherwise be overlooked and unable to access traditional lending. That’s why we call ourselves B:Side.
