Vesey Ventures, a NYC-based early stage venture firm that invests in companies transforming financial services, closed its debut fund, at $78m.
Founded by three former Managing Directors at AMEX Ventures, Dana Eli-Lorch, Lindsay Fitzgerald and Julia Huang, Vesey Ventures will invest in early-stage fintech and enabling technology companies where opportunities for early partnerships with financial incumbents exist.
The firm will leverage its network and domain expertise to identify, fund and scale fintech companies. In addition to every Term Sheet, Vesey Ventures issues a ‘Strategy Sheet’ to every portfolio company outlining how the firm will leverage its network of strategic investors and advisors to act as a company’s first business development team.
Based in the United States and Israel, the fund has already made several notable investments including Coast, Cyrus, Grain, Equi and Proper.
The founders previously made early investments in some of the world’s most successful fintech companies including Stripe, Plaid, Toast, Melio, Trulioo, Signifyd, iZettle, FalconX, Menlo Security, BioCatch, and Codat.
