🚀 Black Investors Changing the VC Landscape Series: Part 6 - Brandon Bryant, Henri Pierre-Jacques, & Jarrid Tingle 🌟 Introducing the powerhouse trio behind Harlem Capital - Brandon Bryant, Henri Pierre-Jacques, and Jarrid Tingle - who are reshaping the venture capital landscape by championing underrepresented founders. Notable Investments: Drip , MoviePass , Singuli Investment Focus: Seed and Series A companies across various industries, with initial check sizes ranging from $1 million to $2.5 million. Why They're on the List: Brandon, Henri, and Jarrid's journey with Harlem Capital began in 2015 as an angel syndicate in Henri's living room in Harlem. From there, they invested about $250,000 across startups, small businesses, and real estate, laying the foundation for what would become Harlem Capital. The trio's paths crossed during the Management Leadership for Tomorrow career program for underrepresented minorities. With backgrounds in investment banking at esteemed institutions like Bank of America , Merrill Lynch , and Barclays , they brought a wealth of financial expertise to Harlem Capital. Their commitment to supporting underrepresented founders led to the successful launch of Harlem Capital's debut fund, which closed at $40.3 million in six months, followed by an oversubscribed $134 million fund in 2021. Remarkably, 94% of the companies backed by Harlem Capital are led by underrepresented founders, showcasing their dedication to diversity and inclusion in the startup ecosystem. ✨Connect with them🚀 Brandon Bryant Henri Pierre-Jacques Jarrid Tingle Stay tuned for more profiles of Black investors driving change in our daily series!
