Silicon Valley forgot to build for the middle market, the 350K HNW business owners employing 40% of America’s payroll.

Today, we’re fixing that.

@FlexSuperApp's $60M Series B equity round led by @portageinvest, building the "AI-Native Private Bank" for HNW owners.

@frederikg191 @LaVandezJones @BLCKVC @drivecapital @Wellington_Mgmt @ForbesUnder30 @Forbes @ForbesTech WAV's $150M fund comes as $$ for emerging managers and Black founders has mostly dried up.

@DominicMadori recently wrote that 0.13% of U.S. venture dollars went to Black founders in Q3, which rounds to zero.

Wellington's partnership contributed $50M to WAV, a show of support.

[Alex Konrad @alexrkonrad]

WAV (pronounced "wave") also includes @frederikg191, @LaVandezJones and Sasha McKenzie, who bring experience at @BLCKVC and @drivecapital to @Wellington_Mgmt.

Groce was our @ForbesUnder30 VC callout for 2021; Cummings made the list that same year.
