PRESS RELEASE<\/strong><\/p>\n

NXT Capital Venture Finance today announced that Joseph Porten has joined the group as a Director. Based in NXT Capital\u2019s Silicon Valley office, Porten will focus on identifying investment opportunities among emerging and late-stage growth companies. <\/p>\n

\u201cJoe is an outstanding addition to the NXT Capital Venture Finance team,\u201d said Jan Haas, Group Head. \u201cHis broad network and expertise deploying growth capital to later stage technology companies will help NXT Venture Finance further its mission of accelerating innovation with efficient capital.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m excited to join the NXT Capital Venture Finance team,\u201d said Porten. \u201cAs emerging companies stay private longer and continue to invest heavily ahead of growth, there is increasing demand for late-stage capital. NXT\u2019s platform is ideally positioned to provide efficient, flexible growth capital to meet that demand.\u201d<\/p>\n

Porten was most recently a Vice President at Battery Ventures, where he focused on technology business models in B2B and B2C software, tech-enabled business services and information services. While at Battery, Porten\u2019s investments included Avalara and DrillingInfo. <\/p>\n

Previously, Porten was an associate with Spectrum Equity Investors, a technology-focused private equity firm with $4 billion under management. His experience also includes roles at Concert Capital Partners and LaSalle Bank Corporation.<\/p>\n

Porten earned an M.B.A. in finance and entrepreneurship from the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business and a B.A. in economics from the University of Chicago.<\/p>\n
