- Inclusion rule
- Organizations that back startups. Individuals, buyout funds and firms we found to be inactive are left out. Stage: the firm states that it invests at Series A. Place: head office in the San Francisco Bay Area, matched on city and state.
- Order
- Firms with a published profile come first. Activity score out of 100: recency of the latest fund filing or dated deal (40: full marks within 3 months, then stepping down at 6, 12 and 24 months), stage focus (15: all of it when Series A is the only stage the firm states, split evenly when it states more), stated focus on the US (15: full marks when the firm names the US as where it invests, half when it says global), size of the fund on file on a log scale (20) and completeness of the public record (10). Stage and regional focus are our research, not an SEC figure. It is a measure of activity and fit, not of quality or returns.
