Ok if You Have No Other Choices and Infinite Time to Waste on Them

Fund: Bessemer Venture Partners

Posted by Anonymous on 2010-10-29

PUBLIC:

The others above have it spot on. BVP has a ton of evergreen powder, and some really smart guys. Cowan is one of the smartest internet VCs, period. But do not waste your time with these guys. Firstly, no one but the senior guys can get a deal done. The other partners just waste your time. Second, they are too slow and way too conservative. The chase obvious deals, rather than creating value. Bottom line - if you have any other options, don't waste your time. Especially if you are an attractive internet company, almost any other A or B level firm can move more quickly and is easier to work with.
