Case Study: Crosslink Capital achieves rapid portfolio scaling and reduced HR complexity with TriNet

Crosslink Capital - Customer Case Study

Crosslink Capital is a San Francisco–based venture firm (~$2.2B AUM) that backs seed- to early-growth startups and runs a 2,000-member founders community called Alpha. Its portfolio companies need to focus on profitability and rapid scaling, but day-to-day HR tasks—payroll, benefits, tax filing and compliance—can distract founders and create risks as they grow.

To solve this, Crosslink recommends TriNet’s outsourced HR solution, combining expert guidance and a self-service platform (including a mobile app) to handle payroll, benefits administration and risk mitigation. Outsourcing HR to TriNet frees founders and Crosslink’s internal team to prioritize fundraising, deal-making and scaling, while minimizing HR complexity and liabilities.
