About Seth Berman

Seth Berman is the co-founder and General Partner at Susa Ventures, where he focuses on frontier tech, logistics, marketplaces, and consumer investments. Prior to founding Susa, he spent nearly a decade as VP of strategic marketing at Richemont Group, bringing a luxury-brand and consumer lens uncommon among seed investors with engineering or banking backgrounds. His investment thesis targets early-stage companies, primarily at pre-seed or seed, that build compounding “moats” in logistics, share tech, fintech, and digital health, with roughly 80% of deals fitting these buckets. Typical checks range from $1 million to $3 million, aiming to own 10–20% of the company, and he often leads investments such as those in Flexport, Pericope Data, and Expanse. Notable portfolio companies include Flexport, Nest, Optimizely, Wish, and Docker, with over 150 seed-stage investments across his angel and firm activities. Berman started angel investing at Y Combinator demo days and later founded one of the early seed funds that backed 10 unicorns across ~100 investments, including Robinhood and Chapter.
