Hello Newman
It’s been about a year since Jerry Newman left Bear Stearns, where he had been a senior managing director and head of venture capital coverage. Now we’ve learned that he’s reemerged as a co-founding partner of Next-Gen Ventures, a $20 million angel/seed fund focused on digital media and Web-based SaaS efforts. So far, the group has invested in Zogix, True Choice and FiltrBox (run by Jerry’s son, Ari). His partner if John Wander, the founder of GiantStep Angel Network and a former principal with Stonegate Partners. Other team members include associate Adam Gold, who previously was director of business development for a Denver-based energy drink company called Xelr8.
