Jeff Becker

General Partner, US, Antler

About

Jeff Becker brings an unusually operator-heavy background to venture capital, having spent nine years at LinkedIn launching new business units and leading sales teams as the platform scaled to 770M members and ~$10B in revenue, plus co-founding and exiting his own consumer product company Earhoox that reached 250,000 customers and broke into Best Buy and Target. At Antler, he works as an inception investor who spends at least two months in person with founders before investing, focusing on backing obsessed, action-oriented founders rather than relying on traditional pre-seed signals like traction or market size.
