Greenfly secures senior credit facility from Espresso Capital to accelerate growth

SANTA MONICA, CA — June 10, 2026 — Espresso Capital announced that it has extended a senior credit facility to Greenfly. A leading short-form media orchestration platform for sports and entertainment, Greenfly is trusted across 40 leagues and 500 teams globally. The company intends to use the capital to accelerate its product roadmap and expand its commercial team as it continues to grow its presence across sports and entertainment globally.

“Short-form content is the future of how leagues, teams, brands and players connect with audiences, and Greenfly provides the critical infrastructure that connects them,” says Daniel Kirschner, Co-Founder and CEO of Greenfly. “In Espresso, we found a flexible growth partner who understands our business and can move at our pace as we invest in product, people, and go-to-market. That alignment made this the right partnership at the right time.” 

“The idea for Greenfly came from something I experienced firsthand as an athlete; the demand for authentic digital content is constant, but the tools to capture and share it simply weren’t there,” says Shawn Green, Co-Founder and Chairman of Greenfly. “What Daniel and the team have built since those early days is extraordinary. Greenfly has become the platform that the sports and entertainment world relies on to bring fans closer to the moments they love, and this partnership with Espresso is the next step in that journey.” 

“The Greenfly team have created a platform that is genuinely transforming how sports and entertainment organizations manage and distribute short-form digital media,” says Will Hutchins, Head of Originations at Espresso Capital. “Greenfly’s AI-powered technology, its enterprise-grade infrastructure, and its global customer base make it a compelling and differentiated business. We look forward to supporting this next chapter.”

Greenfly investors include ADvantage, Alpha Edison, Elysian Park Ventures, Iconica Partners, Mercato Partners, Verance Capital, Ryan Sports Ventures, and NBA Equity.
