QED Investors, a global venture capital firm focused on investing in disruptive financial services companies, has promoted Laura Bock to partner.
“Laura is a true rising star at QED,” says QED Investors Co-Founder and Managing Partner Nigel Morris. “In addition to her stellar work leading QED to invest in multiple insuretech and infrastructure companies, Laura has played a key role in supporting our vision to increase financial health across the country, working closely with portfolio companies that help Americans pay down their debt and forge a path to financial wellness.
“She is a highly strategic thinker with top-notch relationship-building skills, and she has leveraged her experiences from management consulting at Oliver Wyman to offer keen insights across product, operations and growth. We’re incredibly excited about Laura’s future and we look forward to supporting her as she grows her role within the company.”
Bock is on the board of Spinwheel and Decent and is a board observer at Trellis, Wildfire and Easy Health. She has also played important roles supporting QED portfolio companies Collective, Summer, Proper, Bambee, Codoxo and Health iPASS.
“I’m very excited to be a part of QED’s journey,” Bock says. “Since joining QED in 2018, I’ve seen the firm transform itself from family office to one of the go-to places for fintech founders looking for capital and support.
“The opportunity in fintech has never been bigger with a record number of entrepreneurs starting up businesses and a stronger enabling ecosystem to build on. I feel lucky to be surrounded by the team we have at QED, and I’m thrilled to have the chance to continue to work alongside talented founders looking to reshape financial services.”
