Capital One Ventures

Jaidev Shergill is Managing Partner and leads the group, with Maggie Wydra as Chief of Staff. The investment bench includes Partners Nathan Krishnamurthy, Sean Leach and Jon Barad, and Principals Robert Mervine, Julian van Giessen, Carly Kulik, Fred Kauber and Arun Parmar.

Nicole Lapointe Haeberle runs platform as a Principal. The associate ranks are split by function rather than sector, covering investments, portfolio success, portfolio analysis and portfolio operations, which signals how much of the group's work sits after the check rather than before it. Roughly twenty-two people are listed across investments, platform, operations and executive support. The team does not publish prior roles or biographies on its public site, so backgrounds beyond current titles are not verifiable from primary sources.

Capital One Ventures invests as the strategic arm of Capital One rather than as a manager raising outside capital. A search of SEC Form D filings returns no private offerings under the Capital One Ventures name, consistent with a corporate venture group deploying balance-sheet capital rather than limited-partner commitments, and the group publishes no fund sizes or assets under management.

The stated mandate is to back pioneering companies transforming the future of data, technology and financial services in ways that relate to the business of Capital One. The portfolio tracks that mandate closely: Snowflake and DataRobot on the data and machine-learning side, Socure in identity verification, CardFlight in payment acceptance, Onna in enterprise data management, Konfio in Mexican small-business lending, and Hopper and Melio in travel booking and accounts-payable software. The team works from Capital One's McLean, Virginia campus and positions itself as a strategic investor harnessing the potential of startups to accelerate innovation.
