Our
Words
Choosing a venture investment partner is one of the most crucial
decisions a company will make. As entrepreneurs evaluate different
venture capital firms, we understand that it is often difficult
to tell the hype from the reality. While venture firms do significant
reference checking on founding teams before making an investment,
our experience has been that founding teams rarely check the references
of a venture investor. We welcome and encourage the entrepreneurs
and companies that get involved with us to talk with CEO’s
from our current and previous portfolios to find out if the reality
of the value Compass has brought to them matched our claims and
their expectations.
