NFP
Venture capitalNew York · Seed–Series B
Investment thesis
The firm invests at the Seed to Series A stage across the United States, concentrating on health, insurance, and wealth—verticals where it believes it can add meaningful value through its experience, network, and enterprise distribution channels. It writes $1-5M checks targeting 15-20% ownership and typically takes a board seat or board observer rights. Its core conviction is that risk becomes opportunity when paired with the right capital, and it partners with early founders to help them catalyze momentum, reach product-market fit, and scale with focused go-to-market strategies.
