Antoine Nivard is a venture capital investor at Blank Ventures who brings an unusually strong cross-border Canada-SF network from his time helping build Inovia Capital's Silicon Valley presence, where he partnered early with companies like Lightspeed, 1Password, and DarwinAI. He focuses on $500K-$2M seed investments in enterprise and fintech software, taking a hands-on approach by working directly with founders on product strategy and go-to-market execution rather than purely financial engineering.
