Lowenstein Sandler represented Protege in its $10 million seed round and the launch of its AI training data platform to help resolve one of the biggest issues in AI development—sharing and accessing the right training data. The round was led by CRV with participation from SV Angel, Liquid 2 Ventures, Bloomberg Beta, Flex Capital, Adam D'Angelo, Travis May, and more.
Protege was founded earlier in 2024 by Samuels and Travis May, CEO of Shaper Capital and co-founder and former CEO of LiveRamp and Datavant.
The Lowenstein deal team included Anthony O. Pergola, Claire Dronzek, and Lauren Noval Russell.
