We founded Redpoint with a single vision. Partner with exceptional entrepreneurs to help build companies that define industries and shape the future. This kind of bold undertaking does not come easy and as partners in this process, we bring more than just capital. With over 100 collective years of experience and over $2 billion under management—including 34 IPOs and 54 upside acquisitions—we know what it takes to succeed.

Commitment. Changing the world is hard work. That's why Redpoint partners with entrepreneurs every step of the way, bringing deep market knowledge and contacts as well as operational expertise. Through the ups and downs, we strive to be the entrepreneur's closest and most loyal ally. We're hands-on—ready to roll up our sleeves and do whatever it takes. We're collaborative, bringing a valuable vantage point that stems from having worked with hundreds of start-ups. We pride ourselves on being open and direct at all times. Ultimately, we want to be the venture partner entrepreneurs value most.

Experience. Redpoint Ventures was formed in 1999 with partners from Brentwood Venture Capital and Institutional Venture Partners, two firms that have been successfully investing in technology since the early days of venture capital. We offer a deep bench of experienced partners with success in building companies throughout the technology industry. All of us have established track

§ Investment in China

An unprecedented consumer economic revolution is underway in China, with more than 250 million citizens expected to move online—and 600 million going wireless—over the next five years. The transformation is taking place at break-neck speed, and new businesses are being created everyday to capitalize on these new market opportunities.

This accelerated pace has much to do with China's robust entrepreneurial culture and openness to capitalist ideals. It's also fueled by the country's strong intellectual and technology talent pool. For these reasons, China today makes for the perfect environment in which to build industry-leading and market innovative companies.

At Redpoint, our interest in China began through our extensive experience with consumer Internet, wireless and semiconductor components companies. Today, we are leveraging our knowledge and experience in the US to assist local Chinese entrepreneurs as they navigate similar market opportunities and challenges. At the same time, Redpoint is applying on-the-ground market expertise and relationships to this effort, so we can effectively translate that knowledge to local cultural and market dynamics.

§ Redpoint Entrepreneur-In-Residence Program

Redpoint has a successful history of partnering with outstanding entrepreneurs through its Entrepreneur-in-Residence program. By teaming up early on, we accelerate the time it takes to identify a large market opportunity and create a great company to go after it.

EIRs tap Redpoint’s domain knowledge and network as well as our deal flow and deep understanding of early-stage dynamics. In turn, Redpoint benefits from their hands-on experience taking companies from concept to reality, building world-class management teams and executing flawlessly.

Case in point. Satish Dharmaraj—one of the original Java architects at Sun Microsystems—joined as an EIR in 2003. Satish worked with us to incubate an enterprise messaging concept. The company became Zimbra, an open source messaging and collaboration leader, which Redpoint funded. Today, Zimbra has become one of the most exciting open source companies with a world-class management team and a growing list of customers.

Redpoint is always looking for the right individuals to partner with in this way. Interested? Drop one of us a line.
