Glenn Borok 👋
VP @ Jump Capital | MP @ inVest Ventures | Early-Stage Investor, ex-MIT

I am a Vice President at Jump Capital, an early stage venture capital firm that provides capital and strategic support for companies within numerous sectors including the Future of Work, B2B SaaS, Vertical SaaS, FinTech, and more.

Prior to joining Jump Capital, I worked as a Product Strategist at LinkedIn, where I helped shape the vision and direction of the world's largest professional network. I also gained valuable exposure to the venture capital ecosystem through various roles at Firework Ventures, In-Q-Tel, Republic, Unshackled Ventures, and On Deck, where I sourced, evaluated, and supported promising startups and founders. Through these experiences, I have developed a passion for finding and backing exceptional teams that are creating economic opportunity and unlocking human potential.

I have firsthand insight into the challenges immigrant entrepreneurs face, having witnessed my parents' journey to start a business in a new country. I have since carried their entrepreneurial spirit & immigrant-first approach into my investing philosophy, first at Unshackled Ventures, a pre-seed fund focused on immigrant founders, and now at Jump.

Furthermore, I have focused on the mission of empowering American communities and defense. Through my work at In-Q-Tel, I have demonstrated how the private-sector innovation and the public-sector mission can unite to keep America strong and vibrant. Now, as a VP at Jump, I look forward to enabling entrepreneurs of all backgrounds to succeed and scale their businesses in hopes of strengthening our country.
