David Arcara is a Co-Founder and serves as Managing Director at Laconia Capital Group. He serves as a Board Member at Ocrolus. He served as a Member at New York Angels. He is the co-managing member of the General Partner and the Management Company. Arcara has over 20 years of experience as an entrepreneur and general manager of young high-growth and turnaround media and marketing businesses, both digital and traditional. Arcara has raised, either as lead entrepreneur or as part of the founding team, nearly $100 million dollars of angel and venture funding. In 2010, Arcara founded Rubber Soul Ventures to contribute his personal capital and operational expertise to emerging digital technology companies and entrepreneurs. Rubber Soul Ventures currently has a portfolio of over a dozen early stage ventures based primarily in the Northeast corridor including LeagueApps, LocalVox, Page Science and Wymsee. Arcara was also the co-founder of TalkSix, a consumer facing interactive streaming video start-up with a significant B-to-B component. Arcara has also served as General Manager of Imaginova Corporation's digital publishing division, including the flagship property Space.com, founded by CNN's Lou Dobbs and former astronaut Neil Armstrong. Earlier in Arcara's career, he co-founded Alliance Custom Communications, to create custom content for marketers seeking to enhance their brands' customer engagement. Arcara was ultimately approached by Random House Publishing to re-launch and lead the business as Random House Custom Media. Arcara was also a co-founder of UGO Networks, which ultimately consisted of over 500 independent affiliate web publishers reaching over 15 million users a month and became one of the nation's largest 18 to 34 male-targeted online entertainment content networks. The UGO founding team was among those pioneering the concept of an online ad-supported publishing network. Arcara served as UGO's Executive Vice President and led multiple operating functions including affiliate network development, sales, and marketing. UGO was purchased by Hearst Corporation in 2006 for approximately $100 million. In 1992, Arcara formed DJA Media, Inc., which focused on turning around underperforming radio stations by improving product and sales. In 1996, DJA Media formed Radio Enterprise, Inc., a joint venture with Clear Channel Communications, through which Clear Channel provided financing to allow Radio Enterprise to expand to a total of four stations under Arcara's leadership. Radio Enterprise was sold to Clear Channel in 1998 after more than doubling its asset value at the peak of government-deregulated consolidation. Arcara is a member of New York Angels, one of the country's leading angel investor organizations, as well as Harvard Business School Angels. He is a graduate of the University of Colorado, Boulder, where he earned a BA in Philosophy, and holds his MBA from Harvard Business School.

Partner at Menlo Ventures
Tyler re-joined Menlo Ventures as a Principal in 2014 and was promoted to Partner in 2017. He invests in both B2B and B2C markets. His interest is backing talented entrepreneurs who are building delightful and disruptive technology enabled services and products that are sticky to the end user or continuously replenished via a channel. He loves annuities, network effects, liquidity moats, systems of records, and high frequency transactional and replenishment businesses that keep customers around via convenience or habit – ideally forever. Tyler muses that his goal is to back a business that one day Warren Buffet would like to buy because of its enduring value. He knows he's running out of time.
Tyler looks for these types of opportunities across a wide variety of markets & verticals. He finds a lot of inspiration in complex industries, like Fintech, but he also gets excited by opportunities in vertical and horizontal SAAS, branded commerce, marketplaces, and data networks for a variety of industries.
Tyler’s investments (since returning to Menlo) include: Carta (fka e-Shares), PillPack (acquired by Amazon), Bread Finance, BlueVine, Qualia, Everlaw, HomeLight, Alloy.ai, Envoy, BitPay, Stance, Realtyshares, FiveStars, and tCell.io.
Previously, Tyler was an associate at Accel Partners in London, where he sourced investments in Aorato (sold to Microsoft), GoCardless, FlyWire, and Calastone. He spent a lot of time in France, Scandinavia, and Israel looking for investment opportunities.
Tyler’s first job out of college was at Menlo Ventures, where he was an analyst for 2.5 years, and sourced investments in EdgeCast Networks (sold to Verizon), DataXu, Dstillery, and ReadyForce.
Tyler has a B.A in International Relations from Stanford University. In his free time, he enjoys playing chess (improving, but still consistently beaten by his older brother), playing golf, skiing, travelling, and reading.
