Last week, I shared how between 2011 and 2013, Sequoia Capital invested approximately $60 million in WhatsApp – the instant messaging subscription service bought last month by Facebook for $19 billion. And how Sequoia’s return on that $60 million was close to $3 billion, or more than 50 times its original investment.

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). So, let’s just look back 10 years to the 2011 vintage. What Does the VC Performance Data Tell Us? The answer is likely a mix of both.

Hyundai’s Assurance program, which debuted during the 2007–08 financial crisis, is a great example. De Beers made such an investment, even though a brand campaign could only soften the decline in sales during the 2007–08 crisis: Ally faced a different challenge. By 2011, we had 50 customers; today we have over 2,000.

While the number of exits and the capital gained through them were up, these figures still don't match 2007 levels. While it isn't clear if companies with blockbuster potential - like Facebook and Groupon - will come to market in 2011, there is a healthy IPO pipeline. Photo credits: Flickr user John Manoogian.

In 2006 I started using Facebook and most of my friends & colleagues thought I was strange. They thought it was like MySpace and why did I need a MySpace page?
