Brooklyn Bridge Ventures leads or co-leads investments of around $350,000 in the New York City area, aiming to be part of the first $750,000 a startup raises. It will also have the capability to lead or co-lead seed rounds and will be based out of the NYU-Poly Incubator in DUMBO. Founder, Charlie O'Donnell, has been an active member of the NYC venture capital and startup community for ten years in roles ranging from institutional fund investor to venture capitalist to entrepreneur-- with a little product management in between.
