Who is Wasabi Ventures?



Our team includes experts in every functional area that matters to a startup, as well as industry experts. Each of our partners specializes in different areas. While each of our partners can call upon the expertise of the entire firm, if you really need help in a specific area, we will dedicate additional staff to your company.

Unlike most startup advisors, we are practicing executives. We understand the challenges you face because we overcome them every day as part of our "day jobs." We give specific practical advice and assistance, including personal introductions to customers, partners, and vendors.

Why do we advise other companies when we already lead busy lives? The prospect of earning equity in another hot startup is certainly attractive. But the main reason is that we love it. We believe that contributing to a successful startup is the most of the most engaging activities in any professional life.

We are currently actively helping many developing companies in and out of a variety of technology arenas.
