Very Effecient
Fund: Trident Capital
Posted by Anonymous on 2008-03-23
My exposure to the firm was minimal as they did not invest in my company, but it was one of the best VC experiences I've ever had. I only met Evangelos (who is a managing director but at the time of writing not listed on The Funded under Trident). He was incredibly polite. He listened, asked relevant questions and when the pitch was done he gave me a timeline and process for decision making. Moreover, he stuck to his timeline! I pitched on a Wednesday. He responded to my thank you e-mail immediately, re-capping their decision process and timeline. They had their partner meeting on Monday and on Tuesday I got a note from him explaining why they weren't investing in clear concise terms. I was simply flabbergasted. For all of us who encountered the infuriating VC disease of no-reply, no-decision, Evangelos at least was a thankful exception.
