Seed Capital Partners is an early-stage venture fund.

We invest primarily in companies addressing information technology, communications, and financial services opportunities in the northeastern U.S., southeastern Canada, and Israel.

We practice "roll-up-the-sleeves" venture capital. We don't "invest" in companies, we "build" them --and we build a very select number of companies. This focus allows us to retain the highest standards for each investment and to add the optimal ongoing value to our entire portfolio.

We are unequivocally active investors and always take board seats. However, we do not define active investing as simply showing up every six weeks to monitor our investment at a board meeting. We continuously help build early stage companies by recruiting top-tier management and board members; solving strategic problems; identifying and securing key channels and partners; defining organizational structure; and raising additional capital. We will also take interim operating roles when appropriate.

 

"We are pleased to announce that Datapower Technologies has been acquired by IBM Corporation in an all cash transaction valued at more than $100MM on October 14, 2005.  Seed Capital Partners II made the first investment in the company in 2001 and participated in the follow-on financing in 2003.

“It is gratifying to our partnership that after 5 years of working with Datapower and the brilliant and committed executives of the company that the overall hypothesis is being validated by dozens of Fortune 500 customers as well as the world’s largest technology company, IBM, with their acquisition “
