This is the second edition of EEC Perspectives to focus on "Series A" and first round financings. This EEC Perspective presents data and analysis on the number and size of Series A transactions in the New England region and, with respect to numbers of transactions, nationally for the first six months of 2008. It also reports and provides analysis on certain key terms of the New England transactions.
For this issue of EEC Perspectives, we have asked Maria Cirino of .406 Ventures, an early-stage venture capital firm, to comment on Series A financings. Maria points out, among other things, that, picking the right people for your team is the most important determinate of success once the venture has been funded. We plan to bring you other points of view in future issues of EEC Perspectives.
We hope you will find this information useful in your financing
efforts. In addition, we would like to hear from you if you have
transactions or comments that might be interesting to others. Do
not hesitate to send one of us at the EEC an email at
[email protected]. Also, please visit our Web site
emergingenterprisecenter.com and plan on attending some of the many
networking and educational events we hold at the EEC. We hope you
will find the EEC a valuable resource as you start and grow your
company.
