Rembrandt Venture Partners (RVP) was established in 2004 to provide private equity capital to early stage technology companies. Rembrandt invests in a variety of sectors including Internet infrastructure, application software delivered as a service, communications, next generation wireless sectors and new media convergence.
Vision
As many venture funds have dramatically increased in size, and angel investment activity has declined over the past few years a void has developed in the market. Rembrandt believes there is a substantial opportunity for a fund focused on early company building. We are focused on being the firm of choice for providing capital, support and expertise to the best entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley.
Culture
At Rembrandt Venture Partners, we're entrepreneurs first and foremost. General Partners are proven investors and entrepreneurs who can effectively capitalize on this opportunity in the marketplace. We view our role as full partners with our entrepreneurs and management teams to create great companies that change the world in some way.
Operating Philosophy
The General Partners present a team uniquely balanced with over 70 years of fund management, venture capital investment, operational, entrepreneurial and technical experience. Each of us left successful careers in industry to work in venture capital because we wanted to pursue our passion in working with other entrepreneurs to build great new companies.
The General Partners have substantial operating experience with a collective 30 years "C Level" experience as CEO, COO, CTO, CFO, and President with operating experience in large public companies and venture funded start-ups. The General Partners have strong entrepreneurial backgrounds with each having founded at least one start-up.
Each General Partner also has had turnaround experience in their respective backgrounds. Collectively, the General Partners have previously successfully managed four technology-oriented venture capital funds and have invested in approximately 62 private-equity technology companies creating over 35 exits producing realized gains in excess of $1 billion on $190 million invested since 1982.
