Prior to pitching them, I had heard they don't do early stage tech deals and were a little old-school and staid. But I was introduced to a Alan Taetle, a well-respected partner who was aggressive, positive, and "got it" right away. After the first pitch, they moved fast, were willing to lead a deal or be part of a syndicate, and ended up introducing us to a great West Coast VC who co-lead our deal. They have also added a strong new partner with tech and media experience who complements the team well. So far they have added good value on the board, especially with media connections and local recruiting.
