Our Managing Directors, Venture Partners and Advisors are seasoned venture capitalists, successful entrepreneurs and senior-level operating executives. We add value with hands-on shepherding by providing extensive operating experience, advisory networks and strategic partnerships to make our portfolio companies successful. Shepherd Ventures is located in San Diego, part of Southern California's Tech Coast, with easy access to other technology centers throughout the Southwest. This region has vibrant information technology and life science industries and is currently underserved by venture capital relative to its market potential. We believe that our local presence and the collective experience and personal networks of the Shepherd team give us a competitive advantage within this geographic region and therefore primarily concentrate our investment activities here.
