About Matt Cohen

Matt Cohen is the Founder and Managing Partner of Ripple Ventures, an early-stage venture fund he launched in 2018 after transitioning from institutional finance at RBC Capital Markets and founding Turnstyle Solutions, which sold to Yelp for $30M. His investment thesis targets pre-seed and seed-stage B2B SaaS companies in North America, specifically focusing on workflow automation software that digitizes legacy, paper-based industries. While specific check sizes are not explicitly detailed in public profiles, the firm’s latest tracked deal was a $3.5M Seed investment, and Cohen has served as the lead partner on 25 deals. Notable portfolio companies include OnCall Health, Rose Rocket, and Cognota, where he holds board or observer roles. Cohen distinguishes himself by supporting pre-revenue, pre-product startups and leveraging his operator background to propel portfolio growth. He also hosts the “Tank Talks” podcast, exploring startup investing strategies and business politics alongside frequent guest John Ruffolo.
