2004 was the beginning of what I now refer to as “the grind,” which ended for me around 2007. I was wrong, and then 9/11 happened, and then Enron and Worldcom happened, and business kept getting worse. 2001 was a dreadful year for me. 2002 sucked, but it wasn’t as dreadful. But it still sucked. 2003 was hard.

Building off Rob’s original post, let’s continue to look at the 2007 vintage. One thing that jumps out quickly is that TVPI between 2004-2010 (avg 2.6x) has underperformed 2011-2017 (avg 3.0x). What Does the VC Performance Data Tell Us? Let’s see if VC performance data can add anything to this question. during this time.

Facebook had grown stratospherically from 2004-2007 to 100 million users and was everything that MySpace wasn’t. In May 2007 there were fears that Google was becoming a monopoly.

In 2003 the angels started to reappear (some of the best angel deals of all time were done between 2004 and 2007) and the super angel language started to be used around 2007. By 2002 investments at the seed level had evaporated (there were almost no seed financings happening).

Gmail has also changed a lot since it was first introduced in 2004, with the most significant change being that now emails are automatically archived and deleted after 30 days.

Today the landscape is very different from 2004.
