Before we had a company name, Yousif dove in to help us narrow down the opportunity and vision. He has woven himself into the fabric of our company and has been engaging deeply in customer calls, team building, and helping us analyze our market. He goes beyond the typical expectations of a VC and is someone you want in the room - actually willing to do the hard work with you. He is more than an investor; Yousif has been a powerful launch point from day zero - embodying the spirit of a true partner even before our foundation was fully set.” - Ryan Smith, Founder and CEO of Mura

“Yousif has been a phenomenal thought partner in the earliest stages of building Scotch. As a repeat founder, I tend to be skeptical on value-add funds, but Levante is completely different than traditional VCs. From helping to pressure test and ideate on the business model, connecting us with relevant industry leaders from Toast, Dutchie, SpotOn and others to build extreme talent density, and introducing us to true value-add follow-on investors for our cap table, Yousif has been instrumental in laying the groundwork for us to build an industry defining business. I would highly recommend Levante to any Pre-Seed founders.” - Jake Bolling, Founder and CEO of Scotch
