Backwards is a sponsor group of 2 issuers that PartnerFacts links to one sponsor (shared people, shared management entity, similar issuer names; automatic match from the filings), filing 4 Form D filings between Jun 2024 and May 2026.
What this means One team, 2 deal companies, about 2 years of track record in SEC filings. We link the companies because the same people or address appear on their forms — tap "Request a correction" if that is wrong.
Combined reported sold: $1.38M to 7 investors (latest filing per issuer). Industries as reported: Pooled Investment Fund (2). Issuers are based in NY (2).
What this means $1.38M raised across the group, about $196K per investor. Amounts come from each company's latest Form D; they are what the sponsor reported, not audited figures.
Principal people: Backwards Capital, LLC (2 issuers, executive officer, entity), Christopher Zarou (2 issuers, executive officer), Backwards Capital Fund II GP LLC (1 issuer, executive officer, entity), Backwards Capital GP, LLC (1 issuer, director, entity) and Chris Zarou (1 issuer, executive officer).
What this means The person on the most companies is usually the one running the show; their page lists every deal.
Activity: 1 new offering in the last 12 months; latest filing May 11, 2026.
What this means still raising money this year.
Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA), property records (NYC, FL, IL and TX counties) — none found.
What this means Nothing turned up where we looked (4 sources). That does not prove there is nothing — it means none was found in those sources on that date.
We compared 4 public filings for Backwards and found 5 differences: Form D filed 42 days after the first sale; Backwards Capital GP, LLC's role changed at Backwards Capital Fund I, LP: executive officer → director; and more below.
What this means These are differences between the sponsor's own SEC filings — both values, dates and sources are listed in Key records, section 4. Most have ordinary explanations; ask the sponsor.
