We do what a lot of other VC firms do. We invest capital in new companies in growing markets—enterprise and web software, communications and network systems, digital biology, semiconductors, specialized electronic systems and nanotechnology. Our initial investment is typically about $1-5 million, and we usually lead or co-lead while partnering with other venture capital firms.
However, we haven’t built up a large staff like most venture firms. We’re six investing partners managing over $750 million, and we know that our financial success is tied directly to yours. So when you partner with us, you deal with experienced people who not only invest capital, but can help you make that money work.
And, we get it. We’re not starchy. We’re not stiff. We’re not bankers or accountants. We're in this business because we love it. We understand that to you it’s not an "investment opportunity." It’s your dream. So, when we work with you, it becomes our dream too.
