Participate in a roundtable discussion of the most interesting investment opportunities each of us is looking at. Rather than having each participating firm present just one company, we are going to change the rules and ask each participant to present up to four companies in his or her active pipeline.
The objective is to get feedback on the sector or the company, share insights, and possibly build a syndicate for investigating and investing in a company.
Each participant will be asked to prepare a brief synopsis in advance of the companies to be presented. At the meeting, each participant will spend two or three minutes discussing each company.
Attendance will be limited to 12 venture firms -- each firm may, however, send more than one person to the meeting.
Location:Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati
950 Page Mill Road (Red Building)

Small Venture Fund Special Interest GroupThe group is designed for partners and principals of venture capital funds that are under $100 million in their current funds. Given the changes in the venture landscape, it makes sense for those of us running small funds to collaborate, as the profile of investment opportunities more frequently calls for a syndicate of small funds.
With all the shared interests and opportunities among smaller funds, it makes sense to get together to increase channels of communication and the exchange of ideas. In that spirit, we have created the Small Venture Fund Special Interest Group.
If there are any topics in particular you would like to discuss, please let us know when you register.
