AlleyCorp is a $250M early stage VC firm and incubator. To date, AlleyCorp has founded and incubated some of the most influential companies in New York City (e.g., Business Insider, MongoDB - NASDAQ: MDB, Gilt Groupe, Zola and more), creating 3000+ jobs, supporting our companies in having raised over $2B+. In our model, we make two kinds of investments: those where we invest very early as the first seed investors and those where we incubate. On the incubation side, AlleyCorp originates the idea, hires the team, funds the initial 6-12 months, launches the company, and maintains integral leadership throughout the company's lifecycle. I started as employee #2 (through the organization's growth to 100+ employees)) as Head / Director of Incubations then became the first and youngest Partner for 5 years at the firm at the age of 27. I transitioned to lead AlleyCorp's latest incubation focused on increasing fertility access, Branch Care, where AlleyCorp led the pre-seed of $1.5M, and where the company has gone onto raise $7M as one of leading fertility tech startups founded by women.
AlleyCorp is an early stage venture fund and incubator that founds and funds transformative companies, primarily in New York.
