Rembrandt Venture Partners

Managing General Partner Douglas Schrier leads investment decisions, supported by General Partner Charles Pepin and Venture Partner Scott Irwin. The firm states its partners collectively hold more than 60 years of venture capital experience alongside more than 30 years of C-level operating experience. CFO Pauline Duffy oversees financial operations, and advisory board members Gordon Rausser and George Manuelian provide additional strategic input.

Rembrandt describes its strategy as including direct venture investments from seed through late-stage, as well as co-investments and complex situations. The firm does not explicitly market itself as a fund-of-funds investor, and its public portfolio disclosures—such as positions in CloudBees, SmartRecruiters, Pipedrive, Aria Systems, Mesh, and RapidFort—reflect direct company-level exposure rather than LP commitments into third-party funds.

The firm lists early stage (seed and startup), expansion and late-stage, growth, and venture general among its stage coverage. Underlying portfolio activity confirms participation in deals ranging from Series A—RapidFort's $42 million raise—through later rounds such as SmartRecruiters' $110 million Series E and CloudBees' $150 million Series F.

Rembrandt focuses on enterprise technology, with portfolio companies concentrated in enterprise software, AI/ML, fintech, mobility and transportation, and cybersecurity. Representative holdings include CloudBees (software delivery), RapidFort (software supply-chain security), SmartRecruiters (talent acquisition), and Mesh (crypto payments). The firm does not publicly flag consumer internet, biotech, or hard-asset sectors as areas of active deployment.

Rembrandt publishes aggregate annual recurring revenue across its active portfolio companies as a headline metric—$2 billion as of February 2026, spanning over 10,000 employees (per the firm, February 2026). It also cites more than 100 IPOs and M&A exits since inception, though it does not break out which of those exits occurred during its own holding periods versus predecessor firm affiliations.
