It started as an idea to diversify venture capital investing, and now, it’s a reality. Fresh out of stealth mode, the Black Angel Group (BAG for short), was formed during the pandemic. BAG is a collective of professionals across Google and Alphabet dedicated to investing in early-stage, venture-backable, high growth startups. Check out this TechCrunch article to learn about our goals and what we’ve been working on during the past year. #startups #investing https://lnkd.in/ggCDpBmb

Congrats to the Gynger team for raising a $20M Series A funding round and closing on a $100M debt facility! We're thrilled to be participating in this round, led by PayPal Ventures, with co-investment from Gradient Ventures, Velvet Sea Ventures, and Deciens Capital. Gynger is an innovative SaaS platform revolutionizing the way technology transactions are made via their seamless embedded financing platform built for both buyers and sellers of technology. By making capital more accessible, Gynger enables companies to purchase software and hardware with flexible payment terms that fit their budget and growth trajectory. We are particularly excited about Gynger for several reasons: 🧠 Experienced Team: Gynger is led by Mark G., who has 20+ years of SaaS experience and a successful multi-billion dollar exit. The team also includes individuals with strong backgrounds in product development, GTM execution, B2B SaaS, and FinTech, including risk/compliance and fraud. 💡 Product and Idea Innovation:The SaaS “spend optimization” trend is here to stay, even as overall tech spend continues to grow exponentially. IT spend is the second biggest expense line item for businesses after headcount and Gynger is poised to help users optimize those costs as well as serving as a “discovery” channel for SaaS providers. 📈 Market and Traction: The global enterprise software market is expected to grow significantly, and Gynger is well-positioned to capitalize on this growth. The company is on track for a strong ARR growth by the end of the year. Gynger's combination of experienced leadership, an innovative product, and proven traction aligns well with our investment thesis. We are confident in Gynger's ability to drive significant growth and deliver exceptional returns. Our angel collective looks forward to being part of their journey, alongside such a strong group of co-investors! #SaaS #SpendOptimization #FinTech #startups #VentureCapital #Tech #SeriesA #embeddedfinancing #angelinvesting #founders https://lnkd.in/gArM6KTQ

During the event, Lambda Co-Founder and CEO Stephen Balaban shared his journey and pivots to becoming a unicorn in discussion with Zachary Bratun-Glennon, General Partner at Gradient. Lambda Labs is a deep learning infrastructure company that provides computation to accelerate human progress. The company's cloud technology, servers, and workstations are pre-configured with common ML frameworks, enabling clients to simplify and accelerate the training and deployment of deep learning models. Lambda is also a Black Angel Group co-investment — we couldn't be more excited about the disruptive journey this team is on.
