## What they claim to have backed

From their own portfolio page (on their website)

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

CLIENT PORTAL

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**

**[Fotolia](https://millionrounds.com/company/fotolia)** Bought by [Adobe Systems](https://millionrounds.com/fund/adobe-systems) **$800M** Dec 2014

**[Spotcast Communications](https://millionrounds.com/company/spotcast-communications)** Bought by [Leap Wireless](https://millionrounds.com/fund/leap-wireless) **Undisclosed** Mar 2001

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

## Companies it bought

Acquisitions by the firm itself

**Ipreo** **Undisclosed** May 2011

New fund on file

**$727M**

raised in Sept 2026

From its SEC filing, not a journalist: a firm that has just raised has money to deploy.
