Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Position A Partners?
Managing Partners Mike Furlong and Jim Morrison jointly lead the investment practice. Both are former founders themselves — Morrison built and sold two venture-backed startups prior to forming the firm. Individual check-writing authority has not been publicly detailed, but the partnership structure suggests consensus-based decision-making on larger commitments.
How does Position A Partners source proprietary deal flow?
The firm relies on founder networks cultivated through the partners' own operating backgrounds. Furlong and Morrison leverage relationships across San Francisco and New York startup ecosystems, often seeing deals before they reach broader institutional syndicates. They have not disclosed in-house sourcing teams, implying a partner-driven origination model.
What investment stages does Position A Partners typically target?
The firm concentrates on pre-seed and seed rounds, with selective participation in Series A and growth-stage follow-ons. Their second fund, closed at $105 million in 2022, reserved capital specifically for pro-rata follow-ons in portfolio companies that hit early milestones (per SEC filing, 2022).
Does Position A Partners participate in fund commitments or only direct deals?
Position A Partners invests directly into companies, not through fund-of-funds structures. All publicly disclosed allocations have been equity investments in operating companies, consistent with their operator-led, company-formation mandate.
Which sectors does Position A Partners explicitly avoid?
No explicit sector exclusions have been published. The portfolio concentrates on enterprise software, fintech, and developer tools. Hard tech, biotech, and consumer social companies have not appeared in publicly disclosed positions, suggesting an effective avoidance of capital-intensive or long-gestation verticals.
