Flint Capital is an American-Israeli venture capital firm focused on startups in health technology, cybersecurity, consumer technology, and SaaS. Founded in 2013, the firm is headquartered in Boston, United States. Flint Capital's managing partners are Dmitry Smirnov, Sergey Gribov, and Andrew Gershfeld.
Flint Capital, whose name pays homage to Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island novel,[1] was established in 2013 by Dmitry Smirnov.[2]
Flint Capital focuses on a wide array of technology sectors, including digital health, financial technology, cybersecurity, DevOps, SaaS, and more. It pays special attention to startups launched by immigrant entrepreneurs from Eastern Europe and Israel,[1][3] and around a half of its funding goes towards Israeli companies.[4]
By 2022, Flint Capital had two $100-million funds under management, over 45 portfolio companies, including three unicorns, and 13 successful exits.[5] Its most successful investments included Socure (valued at $4.5 billion), Flo (valued at $800 million),[6] and WalkMe (valued at $2.5 billion), each returning over $100 million on initial investments—more than the respective funds had raised.[5][7]
