About Union

We have spent our careers connecting people.

Union was founded by operators and investors. The right introduction at the right time changes what is possible, so we built a way to make it every day.

Where we come from

Meta

We built and scaled products at Instagram and Facebook that reach billions of people.

Forge

We founded Forge, the private market platform that has handled more than 17 billion dollars in transactions, and took it public.

Quiet Capital

We founded Quiet Capital, which has backed more than 260 companies, including OpenAI, Airbnb, Uber, Reddit, and Figma.

Union

After decades of building networks, the relationships were the most valuable thing we had. Union is how we put them to work for you.

How we work

Fewer, better introductions

We make fewer introductions than a database would, and every one is checked for fit and interest on both sides.

Discretion first

Your needs, your deals, and your relationships stay between us. Nothing is shared until you say so.

Relationships that last years

We succeed when an introduction becomes a lasting relationship, so we stay close after it is made.

Our whole network works for you

Every relationship we have built is available to help you find the person you are looking for.
