Fred’s List of Venture Capitalists

This list is compiled from a variety of sources, and a few of the listings are a year-or-so old, but most of the info should be current. For current info you can follow the links to each of the VCs.

Fred has a lot of experience with venture capitalists, and can help companies develop funding strategies, business plans, and presentation materials. Since you usually only get one shot at each VC firm, you should make sure it's your best shot... and Fred can help with that, if you'd like....  check out his consulting page.

If you have any additions or corrections, let me know. Thanks!
