Capital V Strategies, a strategic communications firm founded by entrepreneur Jessica Schaefer, has signed a 6,000 square foot lease in New York City's SoHo neighborhood. The new office space is designed to be a high-end, creative clubhouse atmosphere to serve CapV's growing roster of clients in the tech, finance, and emerging industries. The firm is making a multi-million dollar investment in the space, which features 360-degree views of lower Manhattan, contemporary art, and other luxury amenities.

Why it matters

New York City has become a major hub for tech innovation and venture capital investment, with billions of dollars flowing into sectors like AI, fintech, and femtech. CapV's decision to establish a prominent presence in SoHo, the cultural center of NYC's finance and tech scene, signals the firm's ambitions to be at the forefront of this growth and serve the needs of the city's most influential companies and leaders.

The details

The 6,000 square foot office space is furnished with high-end finishes and designed to have a private members-only club atmosphere, in contrast to the more traditional corporate offices that firm founder Jessica Schaefer worked out of earlier in her career. The space features a rotating collection of contemporary art, including works by New York-based artists, as well as other luxury touches like weekly fresh flowers, hand-selected candles, and a curated lounge area. CapV plans to use the space to foster collaboration and creativity among its growing team of award-winning communications strategists.

  • CapV officially launched earlier this month.
  • The firm signed the 6,000 square foot lease in New York City's SoHo neighborhood this week (February 10, 2026).
