MBM Capital was founded with one mission: create a new, profitable pathway for founders whose companies are orphaned by traditional VC. We are seeking venture-backed SaaS startups making $3M+ in ARR (or $5M in Rev), but can’t raise more VC $; ideally in HR Tech, Fintech, E-Commerce, or Data. Below are write-ups in the WSJ, Forbes, & Pitchbook with more details. If you know companies that fit the bill, please DM! ------- https://www.wsj.com/articles/new-fund-targets-stranded-unicorns-11635759001 https://www.forbes.com/sites/rebeccaszkutak/2022/05/16/turnaround-venture-capitalists-see-opportunity-in-the-current-downturn/?sh=359c408865f6 https://pitchbook.com/news/articles/distressed-venture-growth-downturn

Board of Directors

2009

We are a non-profit dedicated to creating patient communities for people with rare diseases. This 57-second video tells the touching story of our founder and mission - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBeRFnJkleU&feature=plcp Ben's Friends was founded in 2006 by Ben Munoz after he suffered a serious stroke caused by a rare condition called an AVM. During his ordeal, Munoz realized how online communities could help support those suffering alone. Since then, Ben and his friends have started dozens of rare disease support communities helping tens of thousands around the world. We're always looking to help more people so if you know of someone with a rare disease or want to help start a new community, let us know because they could use the support. www.BensFriends.org Our sites include: http://www.bensfriends.org/, http://www.avmsurvivors.org/, http://www.livingwithtn.org/, http://www.aldsupport.org/, http://www.livingwithataxia.org/, http://www.livingwithfibro.org/, and dozens more helping 55,000+ members (and ~100k total visitors per month) around the world!
