Starting a business is hard work. Developing a breakthrough technology is even harder. In additional to providing capital, we provide our portfolio companies with countless years of experience in building businesses and developing technologies. We are very hands-on in the formulation of a portfolio company’s technology and business strategy. We have learned from years of investing that poor strategic decisions quickly magnify into very expensive problems. Therefore, we focus intently on the strategy. After our initial investment, we act as ongoing advisors in helping a portfolio company’s management team overcome critical problems.

We concentrate primarily on early stage technology companies because these businesses offer the greatest potential for financial returns. Further, we find personal enjoyment and satisfaction spending our time with high tech entrepreneurs. We are not money managers and only invest our own funds. Because we are active investors, we only invest in one or two new portfolio companies each year.
