Jake Seid

Founding Partner, Ballistic Ventures

About

Jake Seid has an unusually deep dual track record as both operator and investor, having helped launch Lightspeed Venture Partners as a key Managing Director, founded Stone Bridge Ventures where 12 of his early-stage investments became unicorns, and served as president of TenX/Auction leading an 800-person organization that scaled into the leading online real-estate marketplace acquired for $1.6B. He brings a technical, security-rooted product background from his early career as a Cisco product lead who helped commercialize broadband from startup to $1B revenue in two years while embedding cybersecurity innovations, and now applies this experience when assessing cyber and infrastructure startups with a focus on must-have versus nice-to-have security solutions that organizations are compelled to solve under real-world budget constraints.
