Jeff Richards

Jeff Richards is a Managing Partner at Notable Capital (formerly GGV Capital), where he has been backing enterprise software, vertical SaaS, SMBTech, and fintech companies since 2008. Before venture, he lived both sides of the founder equation - building QuantumShift (a TPG-backed telecom startup that failed spectacularly) and R4 (a supply chain SaaS acquired by VeriSign). That dual experience of building and failing informs his unusually empathetic, operator-first approach to backing founders. His portfolio includes Coinbase, Handshake, Brightwheel, Homebase, BigCommerce, and Tile, with investments ranging from seed to Series B+.
