LA Tech Venture Capital Almanac

Orrick is proud to be a long-standing member and
supporter of the Los Angeles venture community.

The CB Insights’ Los Angeles Tech Venture Capital
Almanac is a valuable resource in assessing
trends, and we are pleased to sponsor it.
The Almanac contains an array of interesting data

points about the Los Angeles venture market, but
there are a couple particular points to note that are
indicators of its consistency and breadth. First, the
Almanac reports that Los Angeles tech startups
have closed thirty or more venture deals in each of
the past six quarters. Second, the data indicates
that not only is seed/early stage funding surging in
LA, but that the number of later-stage venture
deals is on the rise as well. These are positive
signs of LA’s maturing and healthy venture
ecosystem. We look forward to supporting this
continued growth in the years ahead.
Sincerely,
Daniel M. Friedland
Partner, Emerging Companies group, Los Angeles

Los Angeles is renowned as a digital media and entertainment hub. And over the past four
years, LA has also developed a promising tech ecosystem with startups including Snapchat,
Nasty Gal and TrueCar calling LA home. Through December, LA tech venture funding and
deal activity has already hit a five-year high in 2013.
9
Venture capital deals to LA tech startups have risen steadily over time. In fact, LA has seen
42% more tech VC deals in the first three quarters of 2013 than in all of 2009. Each of the
past six quarters has seen 30 or more venture deals to LA tech startups.
10
In a sign that LA tech startups are seeing healthy follow-on financing activity, mid-stage
funding share (Series B/Series C) has taken just over half of all funding in 2013 YTD. Late
stage funding has taken over 1/4 of share in 2013 after capturing just 14% of total funding
share last year.
11
Seed deal share in LA has jumped from 10% in 2009 to 43% in 2012. Early-stage startups
(Seed/Series A) took over 70% of all deals in 2012 and continue to see strong deal activity in
2013 YTD.
12
The Internet sector has taken over half of all venture funding to LA tech companies in each year
since 2009. But 2013 has seen a funding boom within mobile startups, which have taken nearly
1/4 of all LA tech VC funding dollars in the year to date.
13
Since the start of 2010, Internet and mobile startups have garnered over 4/5 of all VC deals in
the greater LA area. The mobile sector has taken nearly 1 in every 5 deals in Los Angeles in
2013 YTD and has already hit its highest deal tally since 2009.

United States
Rincon Venture Partners invests primarily in early stage web-based businesses that are located in Southern California.
Rincon aims to fill the need for more modest first-round funding. The firm's initial investment in a company is typically in
the range of $500,000 to $1.5 million, and Rincon is typically a company's first institutional investor. The firm generally
likes to see a completed offering that has been embraced by early adopters. Rincon generally does not consider seed
investments but will do so when significant effort by either a predecessor entity or a university research program will
dramatically accelerate a young companys progress. Within Southern California, Rincon's focus regionally is the area
bounded by San Luis Obispo, CA to the north, and Orange County to the south. Rincon will consider investments
outside of this area, but generally only in conjunction with co-investors who are located near the company. The firm
believes its primary investment themes span sectors and the themes of focus for Rincon include: (1) the digitization of
communications and content of all kinds; (2) the provision of information technology as a service; (3) the reduction of
fossil fuel consumption; and (4) consumer adoption of technology. As a result of these themes of focus, Rincon Venture
Partners does find its sector focus primarily in digital media, technology-enabled services, cleantech, and consumer
Internet. As with geography, Rincon will consider investments outside our target themes and sectors only in conjunction
with co-investors who have strong relevant expertise. In terms of investment criteria, Rincon looks for the following
attributes in portfolio company investments: (1) Referral from a trusted, informed source; (2) Highly differentiated
approach to a large market opportunity; (3) Compelling core team already in place; (4) Clearly defined milestones and
associated financial plan; (5) Clearly defined routes to market; (6) Attractive plausible exit strategies Rincon generally
makes investments with the following structure: - The firm generally owns a minority interest with executives and
founders controlling their companies - Co-invest alongside partners - Rincon along with its investment partners must
own a meaningful interest in each portfolio company (at least 20%) - Rincon Venture Partners or its investment partners
hold a Board seat - Initial investment can range from $500,000 to $1,000,000 from Rincon in rounds from $500,000 to
$3,000,000
