People

North Bridge Venture Partners

Their approach to investing is best understood through contact with their existing portfolio companies and their managements. The management teams of their current and past portfolio companies are their best references. In fact, many have come full circle to work with them on subsequent startups. This is the kind of long-term relationship that they most enjoy having with the entrepreneurs they have been privileged to back.

Their time, commitment and experience, combined with great entrepreneurs, innovative ideas and large emerging markets is the foundation upon which they have built North Bridge Venture Partners. North Bridge Venture Partners NBVP is co-located and affiliated with North Bridge Growth Equity Fund (NBGE)

At North Bridge , they have found that working closely with entrepreneurs at the concept stage is most rewarding. This work is time intensive, not capital intensive; however, they make this commitment up front when professional investors are hard to find. While a typical project may require millions of their capital, it is not unusual for them to seed a project with an initial commitment of $100,000 - $500,000. In fact, some of their most successful companies began in their offices with a small capital commitment and a large commitment of their time and experience.
