Philosophy

It takes a bold vision to become one of the world's foremost venture capital firms. Equally important, it requires a team with the creativity, commitment and capabilities to deliver results. The VantagePoint Venture Partners team has spent the past two decades identifying, financing and assisting entrepreneurial companies that thrive in today's increasingly global and complex technology landscape.

A cornerstone of the Firm's strategy is our belief that a robust, multi-disciplinary team — one that blends venture capital, operations, corporate finance and technology — is needed to assist a company through the critical stages of its lifecycle from idea to IPO and beyond. Our portfolio companies benefit from the seasoned judgment that comes from an aggregate of more than 500 years of venture capital and technology experience, as well as expertise gained from working on more than 600 IPOs or M&A transactions.

The Firm has also created a network of thought leaders and some of the world's leading corporations who serve as Senior Advisors and Strategic Partners to provide portfolio companies with unique advantages to accelerate growth. Together, we offer our portfolio companies long-range perspective in their industries and leverage worldwide networks to support their initiatives.

VantagePoint's ability to identify breakthrough companies and mobilize creative growth strategies on their behalf is aided by both the breadth and depth of our sector expertise. The Firm is organized by technology practice groups and is actively making investments in key areas such as CleanTech, Information Technology and Healthcare.
