About Seth Spergel

Seth Spergel, Managing Partner at Merlin Ventures, invests exclusively in early-stage enterprise cybersecurity software (typically seed) with a distinctive thesis of bridging Israeli startups to the U.S. federal and regulated commercial markets using a network of 300+ security executives. While the firm pivoted to seed stage to take an active role, Spergel previously noted investment sizes ranging from $1–$10 million for Series A/B companies, though the firm now emphasizes early traction and FedRAMP compliance assistance. His notable portfolio includes Israeli cyber firms such as Talon Cyber Security, Cyolo, Oxeye, Dig Security, and Tamnoon, with several portfolio companies achieving acquisitions, including two sold to Palo Alto Networks for nearly $1 billion combined.
