Good Pitch, Timely Follow Up, Brisk Due Diligence, No Nonsense Terms
Fund: Bridgescale Partners
Posted by OtherPeoplesMoney on 2010-05-05
We enjoyed pitching the Bridgescale team. Being a smaller fund, they can get all the key players together pretty quickly and are able to make a decision to move forward with diligence or to say "no" in a crisp manner.
The team seems well balanced with a mix of investors who are very tech savvy and get excited about new markets and new product concepts, as well as more circumspect financial investors who take a look through the lens of the spreadsheet. All in all I think it's a good mix.
My opinion is that Bridgescale is a good fund to pitch if you are a later stage company doing $10M+ in revenues, with a proven market and business model. I don't think they play that much with earlier stage deals. Bridgescale syndicates well with other firms, so would be a good choice for a company looking for a series C type of round.
