Gary Shuman

Partner
2021
Founded in 2021, Muditā Venture Partners is a venture capital firm with a soul. We invest in passionate entrepreneurs who want to win at the highest levels while also making a positive impact at scale. We focus on early-stage SaaS companies that are post-revenue and pre-growth spurt. We gravitate toward four key segments: the future of work, the future of learning, the future of sustainability, and the future of security. In partnering with Muditā, founders and teams benefit from two decades of in-the-trenches experience (and the battle scars to prove it) of founding, scaling, and exiting SaaS companies. Our expertise, expansive network, and 'founder-funder-builder' ethos power our track record of consistently delivering the highest return and the greatest impact per invested dollar.
