Ben Braverman

Co-Founder and Managing Partner, Flexport Fund

About

Ben Braverman is an "operator first, investor second" venture capitalist who personally led Flexport's go-to-market from zero to $2B in sales before moving into investing, giving him unusually deep sales and operational experience compared to career investors. He focuses on "second-order AI" and infrastructure-heavy companies at seed stage, leveraging his background in global trade and supply chain to evaluate AI-driven companies that must integrate with real-world logistics rather than pure software.
