Equal Partner at Aleph, Finder of Needles in Haystacks

Hear out Matan Bar as he speaks about the Melio story. So many great tidbits that it's hard to choose. Like how they started the service with a human book keeper on WhatsApp that was giving (and getting!) emojis from 10 customers who didn't realize they were the design partners. Or how sharing their mission of keeping small businesses in business got him 5 minutes with President Bush (I actually referred to this story today when speaking with a portfolio founder!). Most importantly, hearing his pushback to Michael Eisenberg as a board member, and his love to Erez Dickman, Ron Gura and Maya Bar Gura, his past co-founders... Makes you really understand Matan as a human. The full episode with Matan and Michael: https://bit.ly/3W7WBm2 - lets do it!

what an incredible company. you'll excuse me, but more than an ecosystem, it's a team that's singularly focused at taking e-commerce owners to the AI finance age. I still remember the first time I saw a shop get their P&L ten minutes after they signed up. my jaw dropped. well done Finaloop team, and welcome aboard Tal Morgenstern to our first investment together. really glad to have you.

📣📣 IT TAKES AN ECOSYSTEM 📣📣 Today we announce our $35 million Series A funding, led by @Lightspeed Venture Partners, with participation from @Vesey Ventures, @Commerce Ventures, @Accel, and @Aleph - and it’s the result of not only a "team" effort, but a whole "ecosystem" one. Because when your mission is to help DTC founders become more financially savvy and drive sustainable growth, you don't get to this point by the power of your product or value proposition alone. In the DTC community, it's all a group effort - a tightly knit value loop, and we've only gotten here with our fantastic customers. Thank you for your trust and to our investors for believing in our vision. In today's economy, securing such funding is a testament to the impact we're making in the e-commerce space. The past two years have been incredibly challenging for e-commerce founders - we are proud to deepen our impact by addressing many of the space's pain points and providing trusted, automated, real-time financial data that drives profitability. You can read more about it here: >> https://lnkd.in/dX9uer-Y TechCrunch’s coverage of the story in the first comment. And now, a quick toast - and back to the books!

Probably one of the Invested episodes I learnt most from. It's clear that China & US are at a collision path, but it's rare to see people discuss the 2nd derivative of that reality. It's going to impact each one of us, and Jacob Helberg has the front row seats to depict that future. Check out the newest episode: https://bit.ly/3KM1ZF6

Elizabeth "Beezer" Clarkson is one of a kind. she knows & respected by everyone in the industry, has unique passion around the topic of what investing in VCs means, and is utterly open about it in #OpenLP and other initiatives. I loved the episode, and if you are interested in the dark art of LP<-->GP relationship, this is a must listen episode of Aleph Invested. episode: https://bit.ly/45fty2T
