Mamba Growth

Background

Mamba Growth is a lower middle market growth equity firm based in New York, founded by Jake Colognesi. The firm raised a $104 million first fund and invests in bootstrapped, founder-owned B2B SaaS companies with $2-10M ARR, 50-100%+ growth, and 90%+ retention. The team is roughly half a dozen people. The firm name is inspired by Kobe Bryant's "Mamba Mentality" — doing the unsexy work when no one's looking.
