Our Companies
* Pejman and Mar and the Pear team’s philosophy has always been first and foremost to bet on the people.
Tony Xu
Co-Founder and CEO
* Pear provided an opportunity to hammer out 80% of the questions we got from investors. We were not even thinking about a lot of those questions.

* Through the Pear network, we found our CTO. We would not have been able to find, evaluate, and hire our technical co-founder without Pear.
Sami Tellatin
Co-Founder and COO
* Whether it’s fundraising prep, investor intros, or hiring the extended Pear team has always been there when we had an operational problem to solve.
William Ross
CEO and Co-Founder
