![]() David BirnbachCEO, Vaultus
PJC led the Series A-1 investment round for Vaultus in 2007. David Martirano and Sean Marsh recruited a VP Sales and independent Board Director for the company, as well as making customer introductions to Citizens Bank, Salesforce.com, Nokia, and Qualcomm.
"Point Judith Capital has been a key member of our investor group, and their partners - David Martirano and Sean Marsh - have been a big value-add to our management team. They regularly offer helpful advice on ways to enhance our performance, and they've been instrumental in introducing us to key executives at firms in our target markets." - David Birnbach ![]() Jim EisensteinCEO, Optasite
Sean Marsh was a founding investor and board member of Optasite (acq. by SBA Communications NASDAQ: SBAC). He recruited Jim Eisenstein as the CEO and subsequently recruited the company's COO. David Martirano and Sean Marsh worked together to manage the Series A equity raise.
"When the telecommunications market had crashed in 2003, Sean and I developed a shared vision to build a new wireless tower company in anticipation of renewed growth in the sector. He was instrumental in recruiting me to become the CEO and Point Judith and their team have been invaluable partners in our growth. We were the fifth largest company in the US tower market by the time we were acquired by SBA Communications and Sean added value through both his insights and relationships through our evolution." - Jim Eisenstein Rick FieryCEO, Envista
PJC co-led the Series A round for Envista in 2006. David Martirano helped recruit the company's VP Engineering and also provided customer introductions to National Grid, City of Providence, and RI Dept of Transportation. "Point Judith has been a tremendous asset for our business. From the initial formation of the company, they were very active in leading the round and assisting in the complex negotiations of an original asset purchase of our core technology. Many other VC firms would have packed their tent and walked away. As we have grown our business, they were instrumental in providing contacts to key customers." - Rick Fiery Michael O'NeilCEO, GetWellNetwork
PJC co-led the Series A financing in 2003 with the Grosvenor Funds. In 2006 and 2007, Gina recruited two independent directors, both highly successful industry executives. Over the life of the investment, PJC has provided several customer and potential partner introductions.
"We have been working with Point Judith Capital since they co-led the Series A in 2003. Gina and Dan have a thorough understanding of
our customer base, have a deep network in the industry and investor community, and have been instrumental in helping to shape GetWellNetwork's strategy." - Michael O'Neil Genevieve ThiersFounder, Sittercity
PJC led the Series A round for Sittercity in 2008. Sean Marsh recruited Martin Clifford to join the company as a board member and the company's Chief Revenue Officer. In late 2009, Genevieve approached Martin and Sean with the plan of Martin taking the CEO role based on his proven success operating the company over the previous year.
"Point Judith is an invaluable member of the Sittercity team. They led our Series A round in late 2008 which was one of the worst venture funding environments on record. Despite the broader market challenges, they were resolute and stuck with us through a difficult syndication process, ultimately bringing together a fully funded deal. Sean and Point Judith are very deep in their consumer Internet expertise and their introduction of Martin Clifford to us as a board member, CRO and ultimately CEO has resulted in tremendous value for our management team." - Genevieve Thiers |
