Gene Lockhart serves as Chairman, Co-Founder, and Managing Partner of MissionOG, a venture capital firm he established in 2013 alongside Andy Newcomb and George Krautzel. His investment thesis targets early-to-growth stage B2B technology companies, with a specific focus on FinTech, data, and software sectors primarily within the United States. The firm typically deploys check sizes between $5 million and $10 million, often leading equity rounds while retaining capacity for follow-on capital to support scaling. Lockhart’s notable portfolio includes payments facilitator Infinicept, which received funding from both MissionOG and Mastercard, as well as BlastPoint, which secured a $14 million Series A led by the firm in late 2025. Before founding MissionOG, he built a distinguished executive career as the former President and CEO of Mastercard International and President of the Global Retail Bank at Bank of America. His distinctive point of view leverages deep operational experience from these banking and payments leadership roles to build great teams and drive company growth.
