Turned Down but Great Group

Fund: 406 Ventures

Posted by cigarwine on 2009-05-18

PUBLIC:

Meet with Liam and Greg. Great guys. Incredibly professional and prepared for our meeting. The deal was not for them right now (too early stage) but would definitely put them high on the list for the future. Interactions were capped off with a personal phone call from Greg with a full explanation for their reasons for the pass. Cant ask for more than that.

Great Partners

Fund: 406 Ventures

Posted by markgold on 2009-01-11

PUBLIC:

As a portfolio company of .406 i can only sing their praises. The whole team (and especially Maria and Greg) are very helpful with their professional and insightful feedback and constant proactive stream of valuable introductions. Equally as important, they are pragmatic, down-to-earth, unassuming, courteous, and genuine. It was a pleasure to pitch to them and negotiate the deal, and even more so to subsequently have them as partners on the board. Highly recommended!

Young Fund Who Gets It

Fund: 406 Ventures

Posted by davidshay on 2009-01-08

PUBLIC:

.406 is a young VC investing out of its first fund. It was started by three operators who grew companies from the idea stage to multi-million dollar exits. They surely get it. Pitching to them was quick and efficient, and closing too. On an ongoing basis they provide much support and assistance. Great guys to work with.

Good Listener, True to Their Entrepreneur Friendly Mission

Fund: 406 Ventures

Posted by poptech on 2008-07-17

PUBLIC:

Pitched to Greg Dracon. He originally saw our technology as a fit with their portfolio. After the pitch, Greg did not see a fit to their portfolio's customer base. By the end of the call, he gave us the answer.
