Welcome to Archer Anand. We are super excited to have you as part of our team.
I am thrilled to announce that I am now partnering with Archer Venture Capital as a venture scout! I first met George Bell, John Hadl, and Greg Martin in 2019, when we invested in Credit Karma together (and achieved a great outcome!) while I was at Macquarie Capital co-leading growth equity principal investments. Since then, we have continued to build a trusted and fruitful partnership, and I was pleased to recently help Archer increase its stake in impact.com where they have been long-time shareholders. Archer Venture Capital is a growth equity firm primarily focused on direct secondaries often coupled with primary capital for category-leading technology companies. Archer is investing out of its 3rd fund and typically invest $10-$25m per company. Archer's partners have decades of operating experience as founders and CEO's, thereby bringing valuable expertise in addition to liquidity solutions. With a strong base of institutional LP's, the firm is well poised to provide patient and flexible capital to solve even the most complex situations. I am incredibly excited by the opportunity to work even more closely with this highly experienced, thoughtful, and fun to work with group. Thank you to Greg, George, and John! If you, anyone in your shareholder base, or employees (current or former) are exploring liquidity alternatives, we would love to see how we can help. Let's go!
