We invest in the most ambitious and promising startups from emerging tech hubs across New York State and the Northeast.

We focus on overlooked regions once home to the nation’s most successful manufacturing centers and resilient small businesses.


We partner early with exceptional entrepreneurs who are confronting and solving core challenges by building world-class, technology-enabled startups.

We are entrepreneurs ourselves and seek founders as passionate as we are about changing the world through new business.


We provide founders with capital, active mentorship, counsel and introductions to networks in larger venture hubs that will help their companies grow.

We help our entrepreneurs identify talent, partners and investors that will rapidly drive their journeys forward and allow them to thrive and scale up their regions.

"Armory Square Ventures played a key role supporting me and ACV in every step of our journey from the Series A round to the IPO. Somak and his partners helped me recruit C level talent, customers, and follow-on capital. These are the hardest-working venture capitalists in America. The team at ASV also cares deeply about transforming secondary cities and aiding new markets like those in Upstate New York."

- George Chamoun
CEO, ACV Auctions (NASDAQ: ACVA)

“As a CEO, you get your foot in the door, and NYC connections. You get fair treatment and someone you trust.”
