INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY |
|
Prefer to invest with other qualified institutional venture capital investors, and to lead deals and establish the terms of conditions of an investment whenever possible, but will also join qualified syndicates as a co-investor when more appropriate. Generally require a seat on the board of directors, but may act as a board observer instead when not leading a deal. |
