Our Mission
We stand with founders navigating the early-to-growth transition
A note from our founder
At Virgo, we’ve built a platform that combines talent and capital to solve one of the toughest, most underappreciated challenges in venture: 70% of startups that reach Series A won’t make it through the early-to-growth transition - not due to product failure, but because execution falls short.
After a decade leading venture-backed startups as CFO and COO, I set out to build something different: a team of seasoned operators who go beyond advice. We embed, we build, and we stay with founders through every stage of growth.
This isn’t consulting from a distance. It’s real partnership. If you’re driven by complex challenges, committed to outcomes, and believe in building what lasts, you’ll find purpose here.
