Somak Chattopadhyay has been operating and investing in early-stage startups in New York State and other emerging venture regions since 1999. Before launching ASV in 2014, he was a partner at Tribeca Venture Partners (formerly Greenhill SAVP, “Tribeca”), where he was instrumental in nearly every investment of its first fund and helped launch its second fund. As a venture capitalist at Edison Ventures, Somak sourced and evaluated investments in the tech-enabled service sectors, managed deal flow referral networks and identified emerging growth companies in under-venture-invested regions across the Northeast. Somak has also held senior marketing/business development roles at Medtower, a pharmaceutical IT software company; and DealTime, a comparison shopping company that went public (NASDAQ: SHOP) and was later acquired by eBay for $620 million. He has served on the boards of numerous companies, and is currently a board member of the Upstate Capital Association of New York.
