Mark Poag's Company Details
Fitz Gate Ventures invests a majority of its capital in early stage companies from the Princeton ecosystem, with a portion of its capital available to be invested more broadly. Typical initial check size is $500K. Fitz Gate is investing out of its second fund and currently has $25 million under management. Through its 200 "Friends of Fitz" advisory board of alumni, faculty, administrators, trustees and students as well as the broader worldwide Princeton alumni network, the fund engages with the Princeton community to help it discover and diligence the best startups and then help its founders succeed (through introductions to more capital, customers, mentors). Fitz Gate has seen its portfolio companies receive follow-on funding at premiums from Sequoia, Canaan, Tribeca, Andreessen Horowitz, Citi Ventures, Focus Financial Partners (KKR), Spark Capital and other leading VC firms after Fitz Gate invested. Fitz Gate's portfolio companies have been profiled in the New York Times, CNN, The Wall Street Journal, The Financial Times, Forbes, Bloomberg, Vogue and other media outlets. Fitz Gate invests alongside other world class VC firms but is also willing to lead and/or invest alone. To learn more visit www.fitzgate.com
