I was introduced to Jim Savage through a friend and liked him. Seemed like he could add value without stepping on toes.

I haven't seen a lot of activity from them and wonder if they are in between funds"

Longworth is Excellent

Fund: Longworth Venture Partners

PUBLIC:

My experience with Longworth has been nothing but positive. As a partnership they have all been supportive and constructive, and individually, each member of the firm has provided specific help and advice. Jim Savage, in particular, has shown himself to be a knowledgeable, experienced, and savvy investor and operating executive. I strongly recommend Longworth to anyone who is interested in a serious partner with valuable advice and counsel.

Great Operating Partners

Fund: Longworth Venture Partners

Posted by jwaits01 on 2007-08-21

PUBLIC:

My company has flourished by partnering with Longworth. Their combination of operational and finance experience has been invaluable to my team and I. Rather than just participating from the periphery, Longworth is an active partner in strategic and tactical objectives, as well as, in sales opportunities. Most of all, they have been patient and helpful when it counts most. As with most VCs, negotiating terms can be tedious; however, once the round was closed, they came onboard with rolled up sleeves.

Jim Savage is Not a Savage

Fund: Longworth Venture Partners

PUBLIC:

I really can't speak for the firm as it is today because my experience is dated (1998-2000), when Longworth was getting off the ground. But I can say great things about Jim Savage, a founding partner at Longworth. Jim was on my board and a complete breath of fresh air. He has genuine, tactical operating experience and offers great insight to founders.

Brutal

Fund: Longworth Venture Partners

Posted by Anonymous on 2007-08-14

PUBLIC:

They came to our offices to express interest in our business and asked me to come into their offices to pitch the group. Three partners were late and the others paid little attention. Was very disappointed in the whole meeting as well as the group of people that I met
