CityBox Executive Essence™
Wade T. Myers is a serial entrepreneur, investor, technology founder, and strategic advisor whose leadership brings together company building, financial intelligence, venture capital, operating experience, and founder education.
As Founder and Chairman of Pro Forma Holdings, Myers is developing technology designed to help entrepreneurs better understand the financial realities behind launching, financing, valuing, and scaling businesses.
His perspective is shaped by decades spent on both sides of entrepreneurship—as a founder raising capital and building companies, and as an investor evaluating businesses, deploying capital, and helping entrepreneurs navigate growth.
Executive Overview
Wade Myers is the Founder and Chairman of Pro Forma Holdings, LLC, the organization behind Pro-Forma, a financial planning and venture-intelligence platform created to help founders develop sophisticated financial models and strengthen their preparation for investor due diligence and capital formation.
The Pro-Forma platform includes tools supporting venture forecasting, valuation, founder assessment, market analysis, investment screening, and capital planning. Its underlying mission grew directly from Myers’ own entrepreneurial experience after an early SaaS venture raised significant capital but encountered challenges associated with rapid scaling and inadequate financial planning.
Over subsequent ventures, Myers continued refining the financial model that eventually became Pro-Forma. One later company using that planning approach successfully raised $12 million and ultimately generated a 68-times return for investors who remained through the exit.
Beyond Pro Forma Holdings, Myers serves as a General Partner at Eagle Venture Fund, where his work extends into venture investing and supporting entrepreneurs building technology-enabled companies.
His broader career encompasses entrepreneurship, venture capital, strategy consulting, corporate leadership, military service, executive education, SaaS, financing, acquisitions, and business transformation.
Why This Leader Matters
Entrepreneurs often begin with vision.
Turning that vision into a durable company requires something more: understanding capital requirements, margins, cash flow, valuation, market assumptions, financing strategy, scalability, and the economic realities underlying the business model.
Wade Myers has spent much of his career operating within that gap between entrepreneurial ambition and disciplined execution.
His own successes and setbacks have informed the tools he now develops for other founders. Pro-Forma emerged from lessons Myers learned firsthand about cash requirements, burn rates, financial planning, investor expectations, and the consequences of scaling without sufficient financial visibility.
That experience gives his leadership unusual depth.
He has founded companies, raised venture capital, completed exits, advised organizations through strategy and transformation, evaluated investments, participated in mergers and acquisitions, and worked with entrepreneurs across multiple stages of company development. His current Eagle Venture Fund profile reports more than 100 startup investments and 25 software companies launched as a founder.
His work today reflects a larger shift in entrepreneurship toward combining human operating experience with technology, financial intelligence, and structured decision support to help founders build stronger companies.
