Venture Capitals Guide
If a place that concentrates in generous proportions, talent, ideas, spirit, business, youth, science, culture, enthusiasm and know-how exists, that place must be Silicon Valley. Its streets have seen the growth of some of the most succesful entrepreneurs in history, those who have been able to transform their home garage into the most impressive company. We are, of course, referring to Google, Apple, Microsoft, Ebay, Facebook and many other giants, who, with their innovations, have contributed greatly to changes in society and have stimulated the human race. All this talent, together in a small condensed area of the world, is exceptional. However, in most cases, this success is impossible to achieve, without vision and economic back-up, both necessary elements to implement a new idea. The Valley doesn´t lack Venture Capital firms in its streets and this ofcourse enables many of these ideas to become reality. To arrange the presentation we have followed a ratio based on the companies track record of operating competence, pitching efficiency, favourable deal terms and execution assistance.
Thank you.

“At Foundation Capital, we’re entrepreneurs first and foremost. That’s especially important when working with companies in their formative stages, which is our preference. We have backed successful entrepreneurs across various sectors — from enterprise software to clean technology to consumer Internet and fabless semiconductors. Typically, we make an initial investment of $1 to $10 million and follow that by participating in each subsequent round of financing. As lead investors, we also are often asked to fill board seats.” from Web
