About Flybridge:
Flybridge Capital Partners is a seed-stage venture capital firm focused on supporting and investing behind ambitious founders, at the earliest stages of company building across a range of sectors who share our vision for leveraging the power of community as a source of competitive advantage.
While our core team operates from our offices in Boston, Massachusetts and New York, New York, we leverage a nationwide network of investment partners via our proprietary Network Funds to invest globally in the most attractive opportunities. Each of these funds is a separate pool of capital, anchored by Flybridge, with a distinct brand and a distributed team of Investment Partners that bring unique sector insights and deep connections into their respective communities. We currently operate four Network Funds: The Graduate Syndicate and LTV Operators (both focused on the Harvard community), XFactor Ventures (focused on female founders), and The Community Fund (focused on under-estimated and under-represented founders). Together, they have nearly 45 Investment Partners and have in total invested in over 230 new companies in the last five years.
With over $1B under management across six seed funds and seven pre-seed network funds, portfolio companies include BetterCloud, BitSight, Bowery, Chief, Codecademy, FalconX, Habi, Infracommerce (B3: IFCM3), MadeiraMadeira, MongoDB (NASDAQ: MDB), Open English, Plastiq, and Splice.
