Feld Thoughts
MAY 28, 2015
For example, from a post in 2008 about Rally’s $16.85m financing , I riffed on the origins of the company. I remember my friend Ryan Martens sitting down with me and Chris Wand around 2001 and walking us through his idea for changing the how he approached managing the software development process.

I recently spoke at the Founder Showcase at the request of Adeo Ressi. I said that at the Founder Showcase, too. And for many of these they were (over) funded 7-10 years ago and don’t necessarily all represent great returns for investors or founders. Or worse yet they may never get financed. Have a cushion.

Both Sides of the Table

I had previously raised VC in 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2005. Another called Parker Harris, the co-founder and CTO. We will hopefully close on a $2-3 million financing round at some point in January and I can get back to the full time work of running my business. I look forward to the next phase of our business.

While a flood of new VCs came into existence during the late 90’s internet boom, many had difficulty raising new funds after the crashes of 2000-2001 and 2008 , and as a result significantly fewer fund managers exist now compared to a decade ago. In the past ten years there have been several dramatic changes in venture capital.
