eCommerce & Retail

We’re always looking for new models in retail that are either purely online, or combine online/offline to flatten the supply chain, remove cost and friction from the system, facilitate marketplaces, and otherwise deliver superior products and services to customers.

Data center management, networking, virtualization, storage, disaster recovery, semiconductors, you name it, we know it and we’ve backed some of the leading companies and category-defining technologies in these spaces.
