Impressive track record of increased company valuations
Many entrepreneurial companies
have partnered with Edison Venture Fund, and subsequently
have experienced dramatic multiplication of their valuation.
Edison specializes in information technology - we have invested
in over 100 IT companies. Achieving 16 IPOs and over 75 company
sales, we have helped many companies to exit with substancial
proceeds that made their founders wealthy and achieved significant
rewards for key employees.
