We’re in this together
We are long term investors. Our founders are our family and we look to build lifelong partnerships. We pride ourselves on being available for our teams 24/7, to help conquer challenges; we want to be our founders first call.
We work for you
We work side by side providing intellectual capital and assistance in any way we can. From Mentorship - Finding Product Market Fit - Raising Capital - Business Development - Customer Acquisition - Sourcing Talent - Press Coverage as well as leveraging our support network in the Fortune 500 world to help secure strategic guidance/partnerships/investments are some of the ways “we work for you”. Your success is our success!
Henry Ward
FOUNDER, CARTA
Ryan and Joe of Expansion VC are phenomenal investors. They did excellent due diligence. And when they decided to invest they went all-in. We had spent over two months raising less than half our round when they committed. After they joined, we were oversubscribed within a few weeks because of their introductions. They discontinuously accelerated our fundraising and our brand awareness. If you can get Ryan and Joe interested in your deal, grab them ASAP.
Jonathan Matus
FOUNDER, ZENDRIVE
Ryan is one of the highest-energy and most proactive investors we work with. He's been introducing us to many customers, large and small, and facilitated the initial relationship with BMW iVentures who ended up investing in the company twice. I'm a huge fan and would highly recommend working with him for any young startup.
Milind Mehere & Michael Weisz
FOUNDERS, YIELDSTREET
Expansion VC are very knowledgeable investors. They knew our space and enthusiastically supported our growth by not only being the first super user on the platform, but going above and beyond to make over 100 relevant introductions. They are very supportive on the board, have given us flexibility but also pushed us to excel to hit our operating plan. They have an unparalleled network to make senior level connections to your customers, press, investors or talent, and their reputation will ensure that the introductions will result in follow ups. They are my first connect when my network is fundraising, it should be yours too.
Joey Zwillinger
FOUNDER, ALLBIRDS
Expansion Capital has an intuitive nose for valuable consumer businesses and consistently look for ways to add value to our company.
Daniel Ramot
FOUNDER, VIA
Ryan and Joe are outstanding investors and supporters. As early backers of Via, they've been incredibly helpful in providing intros to some of our key investors and strategic partners.
Luke Schoenfelder
FOUNDER, LATCH
The team at Expansion has been a critical part of establishing relationships with significant new customers and investors; they are one of the most helpful investors any founder could ask for…it’s been a pleasure working with the team.
