Background
Cassie Walters works in Marketing and Investor Relations at Spur Capital Partners, a Bartlesville, Oklahoma-based venture capital fund-of-funds founded in 2001. According to her professional profile, she has been with Spur since 2008, starting in an administrative/receptionist capacity and growing over roughly fifteen-plus years into a marketing and investor-relations role supporting the firm's institutional fundraising and LP communications. She holds a Bachelor of Science degree from Oklahoma State University.
Spur Capital Partners specializes in early-stage, technology-centric U.S. venture capital, building long-standing relationships with top-tier, often capacity-constrained VC managers and committing to their funds on behalf of institutional investors. As of September 30, 2025, the firm reported approximately $1 billion in regulatory assets under management across five funds, with more than 125 institutional and family-office clients based in the United States and Europe. The firm's co-founder, Paul Gompers, is the Eugene Holman Professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School and continues in an investment-committee role.
In her position, Walters sits on the operating/relationship side of the business rather than the deal-sourcing or investment-committee side. Her work centers on marketing the firm's funds, coordinating investor relations, and supporting communications with the firm's limited partners — the endowments, foundations, and family offices that supply Spur's capital.
Investment Thesis & Focus
- Firm mandate, not a personal angel thesis: Spur allocates institutional capital as a limited partner into early-stage venture funds; it does not cut seed checks directly into startups, so there is no personal "check size" or "target company" for Walters.
- Stage & sector (firm level): Early-stage venture capital, concentrated in technology and life-science funds.
- Manager selection over company selection: Spur's edge is durable access to top-tier and capacity-constrained VC managers in the U.S. and abroad — the firm invests in *fund managers* rather than picking individual companies.
- Investor base: Private foundations, endowments, institutional investors, and family offices in the U.S. and Western Europe.
Notable Investments
- No direct startup investments are publicly attributable to Cassie Walters; she is an IR/marketing professional, not a deal partner.
- As a fund-of-funds, Spur Capital Partners takes limited-partner positions in venture capital funds rather than holding a startup portfolio, so named company deals are not disclosed in public sources.
- Firm-level milestone: Spur reached roughly $1B in AUM across five funds with 125+ institutional/family-office LPs (as of Sept. 30, 2025).
