WHY BANKABLE EXISTS
To Make Scaleups Bankable
— Deepak Lodhia, President & Founder
BUILT FOR SCALEUPS BY LEADERS WHO’VE BEEN THERE
Our Founders
Bankable was built by a founding team that brings together three essential elements of every successful scaleup: access to capital, the technology that enables it, and the education that helps entrepreneurs use it well.
- Deepak Lodhia leads capital strategy and Bankable’s lending and advisory infrastructure
- Jeff Achal architects the technology platforms that make Bankable’s data secure and powerful
- Alex Bruton leads intelligence, marketing, and the diagnostic systems that power Bankable’s matching and advisory capabilities
Together, they built Bankable to help growth-stage businesses access capital, strengthen their foundations, and scale with confidence.
Deepak Lodhia
PRESIDENT & FOUNDER
Commercial finance strategist helping growth-stage businesses access the capital they need to scale.
Deepak Lodhia founded Bankable to bridge the gap between capital and capability for growing businesses. After years working alongside entrepreneurs and lenders, he saw firsthand how fragmented advice, unclear financing pathways, and disconnected service providers often slow down companies ready to grow.
Bankable was built to change that. By bringing together lending, intelligence, and trusted advisory in one infrastructure, Deepak’s vision is to help scale-up businesses move faster, make clearer decisions, and build stronger, more resilient companies.
