Remarkable Ventures
Venture Capital and Private Equity Principals
We are an early-stage VC fund investing in remarkable founders seeking to create remarkable change.
About us
Remarkable Ventures has been investing in startups serving and disrupting New York’s largest industries for more than a decade. We are lifecycle investors. We are operators. We take you from the earliest stage and see you through your next round, and your next, to exit and beyond. We love helping founders build products and businesses from the ground up—and working with founders who love to build. With our companies and through the hundreds of founders we’ve invested in, we’ve lived the highs and lows of building a company. We’ve seen great success. We’ve seen pivots. We’re there with founders every step of the way. We support our founders and portfolio with the help of a unique platform and a big tent. Many funds talk about support for their portfolio, but for us it’s not just our team—it’s our community that’s been supporting the New York tech community since 2011. We have built a platform of more than 1000 mentors, including 500 founders we’ve backed during the last 10 years. We look for founders seeking to create meaningful change through the businesses they create. We look for companies from anywhere in the world that seek to take full advantage of the NYC opportunity. Together we help remarkable founders take their businesses to remarkable places.

🚀 Funding news about portfolio company Emporia Research🚀 💵 The company announced their $4.7 million round today 👏 Congrats to Michael Hess, Jake Roeland, Mark Hannan and the team 💵 Remarkable Ventures participated in the round https://lnkd.in/gd_fx2GR
👋🏻 Hey everyone. We’ve got a fun one today. All of us at Emporia Research are excited to share the closing of our $4.7 million round. We’re even more pleased to be working with the sharp and genuinely good people at Founder Collective, who lead the round, Data Point Capital, Remarkable Ventures, Revelry Venture Partners, and a select group of individual investor and operators we deeply admire. In no particular order, Jake, Mark and I are grateful for: - Micah Rosenbloom, Geoff Oblak, Haley Farnsworth, and the FC and DPC teams who have all been helpful and collaborative long before closing - Peter Liu, the entire team at Entrepreneurs Roundtable Accelerator, and our existing investors and advisors for their continued support - Geoff Schwartz, Esuga Abaya, and Ted O'Connor, CIPP-US who have guided us through this process and many others - Our friends and families for all of the life stuff we’ve tackled together over the past few years - The entire Emporia Research team who we wouldn’t be anywhere without and of course our customers who continuously put their trust in us Over the last two years it’s become increasingly more evident to us that B2B companies, and the agencies that support them, just don’t have the data collection and decision making tools of the same caliber as their consumer-focused friends. If you know the space well, you know that working on running high-quality B2B research is notoriously slow, expensive, and what’s worse above all, fraught with fraud. We’d like to reimagine how a lot of that work gets done today. The team here is committed to designing delightful insights solutions that assist in B2B decision making – we really do all step back from the day and appreciate that it’s pretty fascinating stuff to work on. If you’re a B2B company, a market research agency, or are curious about joining the team, give me a shout!
