Firas Raouf
Fondateur chez Companyon Ventures Management LLC
Profil
Firas has been involved in early-stage software for the past twenty years, primarily focused on B2B and SaaS.
He co-founded eEye Digital Security, where Firas was COO in charge of sales, marketing, and operations.
eEye scaled quickly in first five years to nearly $18M in revenue.
In 2006, after leaving Insight Venture Partners, Firas was a founding partner at OpenView Venture Partners based in Boston.
Openview is an expansion stage fund focused on B2B SaaS with a unique model of delivering exceptional value-add work to its portfolio through a dedicated consulting team.
When not working, you’re likely to find Firas on the Charles River at sunrise with a motley crew of Masters competitive rowers.
And when the river is frozen, you will likely find him on the slopes at Bretton Woods in New Hampshire.
Firas lives in Newton, MA with Jameila, his beautiful wife (a Pediatrician, so the smarter one), daughter Nayla (the better rower) and son Nouri (the more technical one).
