Mason Bleakley
Principal
Icehouse Ventures
I began my venture capital journey at age 19, driven by a deep passion for partnering with founders building globally ambitious companies. Since joining Icehouse Ventures as an early employee in 2017, as a firm we have gone onto invest more then NZ$500M across 350+ Kiwi startups. Over the years, I’ve raised over $30M in venture funds, in addition to leading the raise and deployment of First Cut, a NZ$5.2M venture fund backing founders under 30, offering them not just capital but a supportive community designed for emerging talent.
