The short version

Jay Po is listed as an executive officer, director, and promoter on 4 SEC Form D filings by 4 issuers between Oct 2018 and Mar 2026: Stage 2 Capital Fund II-A, L.P. (Lincoln, MA — pooled investment fund — 2020; $33.3M reported sold to 151 investors), Negotiatus Corp. (New York, NY — other technology — 2026; $26.3M reported sold to 39 investors), Stage 2 Capital Fund II, L.P. (Lincoln, MA — pooled investment fund — 2020; $10.4M reported sold to 72 investors) and Stage 2 Capital Fund, L.P. (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2018; $6.1M reported sold to 39 investors).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 4 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer, director, and promoter, over about 8 years. Across those companies the filings report $76.1M sold in total.

Listed alongside Mark Roberge (2 shared filings), Stage 2 Capital Fund II GP, LLC (2 shared filings, management entity), Joseph Charles Dimino, Jr. (1 shared filing), Justin Kaufenberg (1 shared filing), Matthew Garippa (1 shared filing) and 4 others.

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Jay. Each name links to their own page.

3 of the issuers belong to the sponsor group Stage (25 issuers, $233.5M reported sold, 2018–2024).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Stage has 25 companies on file and $233.5M reported sold in total — the group page shows the whole track record in one place.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — none found.

What this means Nothing turned up where we looked (3 sources). That does not prove there is nothing — it means none was found in those sources on that date.

We compared 4 public filings for Jay Po and found 10 differences, 2 worth asking the sponsor about: Jay Po is no longer listed on the Aug 24, 2020 amendment; and more below.

What this means These are differences between the sponsor's own SEC filings — both values, dates and sources are listed in Key records, section 4. Most have ordinary explanations; ask the sponsor.

4. Differences between public sources

Comparisons cover issuers and sponsor groups — see the issuer pages under Deals

10 differences found between the filings for Jay Po — 2 worth asking about (compared 4 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Apr 16, 2020 – Aug 24, 2020

Jay Po is no longer listed on the Aug 24, 2020 amendment — Stage 2 Capital Fund II, L.P.

Jay Po appears on the Apr 16, 2020 Form D (executive officer) but not on the Aug 24, 2020 Form D/A for the same offering.

What this means People leave, and the issuer must list only current officers, directors and promoters. It is still worth asking why this person left and who replaced them.

Jay Po appears on the Apr 16, 2020 Form D (executive officer) but not on the Aug 24, 2020 Form D/A for the same offering.

Sources
Note · Jan 30, 2026 – Mar 16, 2026

Form D filed 45 days after the first sale — Negotiatus Corp.

The filing says the first sale was Jan 30, 2026. The Form D was filed Mar 16, 2026 — 45 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 30 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Oct 8, 2018 – Oct 17, 2018

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Stage 2 Capital Fund, L.P. (latest filing Oct 17, 2018)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Oct 17, 2018 (first sale Oct 8, 2018). It reports $6,100,000 sold of an indefinite amount offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

Same name, different state: "Jay Po" (MI) is a separate record

What is compared

What is compared: every Form D and D/A we hold for this subject, side by side — filing dates vs. first-sale dates (the 15-day rule), amendment timing on open offerings (the yearly-amendment expectation), amounts sold, investor counts, offering amounts and minimums across amendments, industry and size bands, addresses, how each person's name and role is written, paid sellers' CRD numbers, and (for groups) where the member companies were formed and sit. Everything is as filed by the issuer; the SEC does not check it. Differences are common and usually have ordinary explanations — we show both values, the dates, and the source so you can ask. As of Oct 24, 2026.
