Flybridge Capital Partners, an early-stage venture capital firm, has expanded its New York City offices with the addition of several investment team members.
Matt Witheiler (pictured), a principal with the firm previously based in Boston, has moved to New York joining general partner David Aronoff who established the firm’s New York City office earlier this year.
Caitlin Strandberg, who previously worked in business development at New York City based start-ups LearnVest and Behance, has joined the firm’s New York office as an associate.
“Over the past few years, our involvement with the New York start-up community has increased significantly, with nearly half our new investment deal flow now coming from this region and team members from Boston spending a significant amount of time in the city,” says Aronoff. “In response to this, we set up an office in New York earlier this spring and are thrilled to now have Matt and Caitlin to support our New York investment initiatives.”
Flybridge Capital Partners’ New York investments to date include 10gen, 33Across, tracx, and Jingle Networks, which was acquired by Marchex in April 2011.
