Joshua Rahn is Co-founder & Managing Partner at Oceans, a new, NYC-based early-stage venture fund working to help build the next trillion-dollar businesses. Oceans recently announced the close of Fund I, an $11M fund designed to make this mission a reality. Early investments include Famer, Mealco, Uppercampus, Teal, and Tembo Health, among others.
Prior to founding Oceans, Josh spent 9 years at Facebook, where he helped grow their NYC office. Josh also had two successful exits as a founder before joining Facebook. He is a WashU alum!
In the episode, Josh joins The Takeoff's Michael Spiro to discuss:
Quick note from Michael: I had a ton of fun having a WashU alum in Josh on the Podcast. I can’t wait to see what’s ahead for him and Oceans. As a native New Yorker, I love the fund’s New York focus, and Josh’s passion for helping current students (particularly at WashU) means so much to me.
