Union Square Ventures (USV)

Check: USV's published firm range is $1 million to $30 million from earliest stage through follow-ons. No personal range is attributed to John, and the firm's investment decision is a collective discussion rather than an individual vote.

John's published investments apply a lawyer-investor lens to regulated markets where analog, repetitive infrastructure blocks access. His work favors portable financial identity, user-controlled credentials, digital-first insurance and legal workflows, and trusted financial brands that broaden affordable access to capital—particularly for underbanked consumers and long-tail merchants in Latin America.

Shorooq Partners

Check: No standard personal ticket is published. Shorooq describes Nahda as flexible, tailored debt financing for high-growth and established MENA businesses. Public examples include $15M for Abhi and $12.5M for The Box, but those transactions are examples—not a stated minimum, maximum or personal range.

Nathan uses tailored private credit to fill the financing gap left by conservative banks and to help technology companies reach their next growth milestone with less equity dilution. His underwriting lens balances flexible structure and founder needs against lender downside protection, cash-flow visibility, repayment capacity and disciplined risk-adjusted returns. He also sees a cross-border opportunity connecting Korean technology with MENA demand and capital.
