Expanding the Team: Welcoming 3 New Faces to Frontline

We’re delighted to welcome three new faces to the Frontline team, to support the deployment and management of the Frontline Seed and Growth funds, with $200m of fresh funding recently announced.
Allison Graf, Frontline Ventures

Allison Graf joins as our first Investor Relations Manager, helping to strengthen our relationships with our fund investors. Allison joined us in May and has been busy getting to know all of the investors in our funds across Europe, and building her network of brilliant IR professionals across VC and PE in London—reach out to Allison here if you’d like to swap notes.

Prior to joining Frontline, Allison spent seven years at Cornell Tech, Cornell University’s New York campus focused on educating the next generation of tech entrepreneurs. As a core member of the development team there, she raised funds to advance the strategic vision of the campus, and worked on projects to promote a more inclusive and ethical tech ecosystem.

Dylan Scully, Frontline Ventures

Dylan Scully joins the Frontline Seed investment team. Based in our Dublin office, Dylan will have a particular focus on meeting the best and brightest founders that the Irish ecosystem has to offer.

He’s already hit the ground running, and is spending one day a week with the team at Dogpatch labs to mentor the next cohort of startups coming through. 

He has plenty of wisdom to impart here, having taken part in an accelerator himself as the founder and COO of MatchDay. After riding the highs and lows of life as an entrepreneur, Dylan spent five years in consulting, serving as Commercial Strategy Lead at Accenture’s Global Innovation Centre. He is particularly interested in meeting ambitious European founders building at the intersection of software and the sciences, as well as the services industries. If that sounds like you, then please reach out to Dylan here
Philipp Werner, Frontline

The most recent of our new hires is Philipp Werner on the Seed investment team, based in our London office. 

Philipp joins us from a Berlin-based VC, where he spent five years investing in B2B AI SaaS, specialising in fintech. He’ll remain an active participant in the DACH and CEE tech ecosystems whilst at Frontline. 

Prior to his venture career, Philipp played a key role in building the commercial strategy for a B2B data analytics platform. He is an active member of Sigma Squared, a non-profit organisation supporting young founders, and regularly advises entrepreneurs across Europe on their go-to-market and fundraising strategies. He’s looking to meet “thoughtfully wild” founders developing innovative products in security, climate, fintech, or dev tools—you can reach out to Philipp here if that’s you. 

We’ve loved welcoming Allison, Dylan and Philipp on board over the past few months, and can’t wait to see how they progress and grow with Frontline in the years to come.
