Consensus Driven, Lots of Due Dil
Fund: Redpoint Ventures

These guys are smart, but the groupthink is staggering. There's only three ways to get a deal done - Yang wants it, Walecka wants it, or you have consensus among the whole partnership. No surprise they do lots of syndicate deals. These guys will take their time, for sure. If you don't have another term sheet, you will never get one from Redpoint. They shy away on big valuations too.
That all being said, the few CEO's I have met in their companies say they are very helpful in recruiting, M&A, and introductions to big companies.
