Background

Tim Meyer is a private capital-markets executive with more than 25 years of experience in private placements and structured financings. He holds a BBA from the University of Michigan. Over his career he has completed more than 125 private placements and previously built and led the private financing efforts at both BMO Capital Markets and ING Barings, working with clients across the technology, healthcare, industrials and consumer sectors.

Meyer served as a Managing Director at Marathon Capital, the Chicago-founded boutique investment bank focused on the energy, infrastructure and clean-economy markets. At Marathon Capital he raised over $1 billion for renewable and energy-technology companies, making him a specialist in financing the transition to a decarbonized economy. His email at marathon-cap.com dates from this tenure with the firm.

In July 2019, Cowen Inc. announced that Meyer had joined its Capital Markets team as a Managing Director focused on Private Capital Solutions, reporting into the firm's private capital leadership (Scott Hague / Grant Miller's Capital Markets Group), based in New York. Following TD Bank Group's 2023 acquisition of Cowen, that business became part of TD Cowen / TD Securities, where the Private Capital Solutions team offers a product-agnostic, solutions-based approach to clients' capital raising and balance-sheet needs. Meyer's LinkedIn headline identifies him as a "Private Capital Solutions Leader."

Investment Thesis & Focus

  • Works as a private placement agent / capital-raising advisor rather than as a principal angel investor — he arranges private equity and private debt/equity financings for companies, connecting them to institutional and strategic capital.
  • Deep specialization in renewable energy and energy-technology companies, where he raised $1 billion+ while at Marathon Capital.
  • Broader private-placement track record spanning technology, healthcare, industrials and consumer sectors (per Cowen's Capital Markets group).
  • Marathon Capital's mandate — "innovative solutions powering a decarbonized future," focused on the sale and financing of companies, portfolios and assets in energy, infrastructure and the clean economy — frames the kinds of deals he supports.
  • Colleagues describe his value as bringing "years of success as trusted advisors to clients on both private equity placements and debt and equity financings."

Notable Investments

  • $1 billion+ raised for renewable and energy-technology companies during his tenure at Marathon Capital.
  • 125+ private placements completed across his career at Marathon Capital, BMO Capital Markets and ING Barings, spanning technology, healthcare, industrials and consumer sectors.
