leadership
As seasoned venture capitalists, we founded Harmony to help entrepreneurs and their companies optimize expansion stage financings. We were both entrepreneurs early in our careers, and as such, have the highest admiration and respect for entrepreneurs. We value the close partnerships we developed with management teams over the years, and take great pride in our reputations for being thoughtful, trusted, enthusiastic, strategic, and candid individuals. Besides rolling up our sleeves, we mobilize a broad network of entrepreneurs, executives, channel partners and potential customers to help scale our portfolio companies.
