Gabriel Venture Partners® is an early-stage venture capital firm committed to fostering innovation by actively assisting entrepreneurs in technology and technology-enabled businesses. Gabriel seeks investment opportunities in capital-efficient companies that have the potential to be market leaders. Gabriel is based in Silicon Valley and has over $260 million under management. Gabriel's investment team consists of seasoned technology entrepreneurs and industry executives, each with international operating experience and strong domain expertise. Representative investments include Placeware (acquired by Microsoft), NetScaler (acquired by Citrix), and Iridigm (acquired by Qualcomm), as well as India investments such as Allsec (IPO), IL&FS Investsmart (IPO), and Provogue (IPO).

Based in Silicon Valley, SCV focuses on early-stage companies that require relatively small amounts of capital to achieve success. While most venture capitalists have grown too large to invest as little as $250,000 to $1 million in a financing round, Startup Capital Ventures actively targets investments in this range. The firm leverages its investment with unparalleled operations experience from a team of five seasoned professionals. Generally, SCV targets capital efficient opportunities, such as companies in the software business, that are generating revenue and can show a reasonable likelihood of reaching near-term profitability from the initial investment. SCV's approach is to build a supportive partnership around an outstanding entrepreneurial team, with a clear market vision for a unique product or service. A key focus is investing in strong management teams, not just technologies. The firm strives to build a supportive working relationship with each portfolio company, based on flexibility, integrity, hard work, and patience. Though focused on Silicon Valley, Startup Capital Ventures has active investments in China, Texas, and Hawaii.
