In the last 12 months, Quick Left has merged with Sprintly in Portland, doubled its team, and now has raised $500,000 in funding from Lighter Capital in Seattle. That is quite the way to end 2015 for the Boulder-based software development team.

Lighter Capital, which has funded over 30 tech companies ranging from SaaS to cloud-based solutions, specializes in providing flexible, revenue-based financing- which is a perfect match for Quick Left, according to CEO Ingrid Alongi.

“We are really excited to work with a firm like Lighter Capital who understands and values our unique business model which is made up of a software consulting arm and a product arm. The injection of capital will enable us to accelerate growth in one of our newest product lines which will be a great compliment to Sprintly,” said Alongi in a statement.

Besides being a leader in the industry, Boulder-based Quick Left has also been an integral cornerstone in the community. About once a month, Quick Left hosts a chance for technologists to develop their skills in a fun enviornment this has included hackfests, beerfests, tinker hours, and Built In Brews.

In November, they launched an Adopt a Startup program, a startup competition that offers pre-Series A companies the chance to apply to win a month of custom software development with a pair of full-stack developers in exchange for value equivalent convertible notes.
