Robert Go’s Summary
I am a Senior Associate at Spark Capital, a venture capital firm focused on the intersection of media, technology, and entertainment. I am looking to identify and partner with entrepreneurs pursuing game-changing innovations. I also helped to launch and coordinate Start@Spark, a seed stage investment program targeted at early-stage companies in the New York and Boston areas.
Prior to joining Spark Capital, I worked at Ebay, as the North America Business Unit owner for "Finding". In this role, I helped launch over 20 products that significantly enhanced Ebay's search, browse, and merchandising capabilities.
Previously, I was a Senior Associate at The Parthenon Group, a boutique strategy consulting firm. I was a member of the firm's Private Equity practice, and focused on the consumer and retail industries. Additionally, I have also held roles at Fidelity Investments, BzzAgent, and helped to found Letslink.jp, one of the first social networking sites outside of the United States.
