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**

RW **Ryan Waddington** Manager of General Partner of Issuer (HRV Opportunity Fund Partners, LLC) i Filing they signed

TS **Tim Streit** Manager of General Partner of Issuer (HRV Opportunity Fund Partners, LLC) i Filing they signed

We also hold **2** 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)

**5** of 8 we have independently watched raise

[guardhat](https://millionrounds.com/company/guardhat)[peachworks](https://millionrounds.com/company/peachworks)[sight-machine](https://millionrounds.com/company/sight-machine)[skyspecs](https://millionrounds.com/company/skyspecs)[zipments](https://millionrounds.com/company/zipments) algal covaron root3

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.

## Exits from the portfolio

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

**[Zipments](https://millionrounds.com/company/zipments)** Bought by Deliv **Undisclosed** Nov 2015

**[RideScout](https://millionrounds.com/company/ridescout)** Bought by moovel GmbH **Undisclosed** Sept 2014

An exit counts when it came after the firm's first round in the company. From historical deal records.
