Corazon Capital was founded on the idea that success begins with the heart to build bolder. With accomplished track records as investors and operators, Sam Yagan and Steve Farsht have stayed true to this approach throughout their careers. They founded Corazon Capital to empower like-minded founders to pursue their audacious vision with been-there advice and a long-term partnership. 

 

Sam co-founded SparkNotes, eDonkey, and OKCupid before posting up as CEO of Match Group (NASDAQ: MTCH) through its IPO. He most recently took the reins as the CEO of ShopRunner and led its sale to FedEx Corp (NYSE: FDX). 

 

As a General Partner at Norwest Equity Partners, Steve participated in its growth from five to twenty-five investment professionals. He honed his operating chops as CEO of DCM Services, a NEP portfolio company. After moving to Chicago, Steve immersed himself in the startup ecosystem, first as COO of Tap and then co-CEO of Techstars Chicago.
