An announcement gives the size of the round, not the size of this investor's cheque: the only rounds that imply a cheque are those where they were the sole named investor.

## The team

Named by the firm itself, on a filing, its Form ADV or its company registration **2 named**

We also hold **5** people at this firm from the lists this database was built from: a weaker source than the filings, since a list does not say when a title ended. Login to see them.

## What they claim to have backed

From their own portfolio page (on their website)

**1** of 1 we have independently watched raise

[Arcamed](https://millionrounds.com/company/arcamed)

Weaker than a round we watched, stronger than a list somebody sold us. A firm is far less willing to put a company on its own site that it never funded.

Companies it backed that were later bought or listed **2 in all**

**[IDEV Technologies](https://millionrounds.com/company/idev-technologies)** Bought by [Abbott Labs](https://millionrounds.com/fund/abbott-labs) **$310M** Jul 2013
