Coalition Operators
Coalition was founded by Toyin Ajayi, Ashley Mayer, Jaclyn Rice Nelson, and Lindsay Ullman alongside our core jobs as founders and operators. We believe operators can be some of the most valuable people on cap tables, so we set out to build the venture products we wanted as founders. At Coalition, we help startups build diverse, impactful cap tables through our early stage fund and network of top operators. Coalition Fund I is a $12.5M fund that backs early stage companies with capital and expertise from active founders and operators. Our sweet spot is Seed and an average investment of $200K-300K. In addition to investing, we’ve also built the Coalition Network, a place for women to build their worlds, wealth and impact beyond their core jobs. We've partnered with top venture capital firms on a new advisory model to scalably connect senior operators with startups where their expertise is uniquely valuable.
