These Guys Work Hard for Their Portfolio Companies.
Fund: Metamorphic Ventures
Posted by Jeff Malkin on 2010-06-14
Metamorphic led Encoding.com's Series A which closed in January. Closing the deal was generally a smooth process -- FYI, I've closed 9 rounds of financing in the past 12 years so I've seen many different scenarios.
The reason we chose Metamorphic was that Marc, Lewis, and David all have strong operating experience and seemed to be very connected in our market. And, we believed that as a relatively new fund, they would work harder for their portfolio companies. We were correct on all accounts. They are super-supportive and continually offer help with customer intros, strategy, business modeling, and thoughts on how to improve operational efficiencies.
So far, the first six months working together has been a very positive experience. For any entrepreneur in the digital media / technology space looking for early stage capital, I recommend reaching out to Metamorphic.

Much to say, but let me start by stating that more than anything, they are solid, ethical, people who truly appreciate the talents and efforts of entrepreneurs. They are extraordinarily well-connected. They are very generous with their contacts as well as their time, experience and insights (even if they don't end up funding you). They are extremely focused on the areas they want to fund and very capable of assisting companies in these verticals. I have found them to be very fair with terms. I did not pitch them (they were already in), but I have seen them take other pitches and they are always cordial, genuine and engaged. The partners' varied experiences are broad and fit together well; you would benefit from pitching and getting to know them.

Marc, lewis and David pretty much cover every detail of the media and mobile space. They are well versed and highly connected. Would recommend them as they do add themselves to the team === but in a good way.
