PUBLIC:

Avalon's Web part of the fund is a good match for companies in social media / rich media / advertising and anything consumer facing. Rich, Steve and Brady are all savvy VCs, with many years of experience both as investors and as operators. They understand the challenges of running and growing small companies while thinking big. The admin staff is easy to work with, and very professional
