From the Venture Trenches
MARCH 27, 2013
The recent firing of Groupon’s CEO Andrew Mason is a cautionary tale of the increased scrutiny and heightened expectations that come from accessing increasingly larger amounts of investment capital. Is outside capital really required? Who should you approach, “friends and family”, passive investors or value added institutions?

This was really a fun week at TWiVC because we decided to have an entrepreneur come and talk about raising capital rather than having a VC come on. Raised angel money from Rob Lord, Reid Hoffman, Benchmark Capital and others. Current round: $8.1mm in Series C by S3 Ventures (lead), Adams Capital Mgmt, Triangle Peak Partners.

What a pleasure that I got to spend an hour talking with both Om Malik (whom I’ve always respected his views) and Paul Jozefak , a venture capital partner at Neuhaus Partners in Germany (and formerly the head of Europe for SAP Ventures). Current round: $5.0mm in Series A by NEA and Anthem Venture Partners. Total raised: $5.0mm.

We never took a dollar of outside capital, from the founding until this round a couple of months ago. Now, despite bootstrapping, you actually have some connections to the venture capital world, don't you? My brother is actually at Anthem Ventures, working with Bill Woodward, and I was an intern there in business school.
