Vyrill has joined the Lightship Capital portfolio. Lightship Capital is a venture capital fund that is driving innovation and investment in the Midwest.

“At Lightship, we invest in specific industries. This allows us to focus on things we do well and where we can help founders to have a demonstrable advantage. Two of our favorite industries are Artificial Intelligence and Consumer Packaged Goods. We see a winner in both of these spaces in Vyrill.
