Investment
Focus
Alameda provides value-added venture capital to
promising young companies that are commercializing innovative products
based on the convergence of advanced materials, information technology
and/or life sciences. We believe that such multi-disciplinary companies
have the potential to transform large existing markets with technology
that is difficult for competitors to replicate. We have a special
interest in funding entrepreneurs who are developing compelling
solutions based on disruptive microfluidics, MEMS or nanotechnologies. |
What
We Look For |
| |
|
| Areas of interest include,
but are not limited to: |
|
• Sensors (e.g.
biochips, security, environmental, other) and controls
• Displays
• Photovoltaic systems
• Fuel cells
•
Advanced batteries
• Memory and storage devices
• Integrated photonics systems
• Next generation semiconductor devices
• Next generation drug discovery tools
• Smart materials |
|
|
| |
|
| Although we
focus primarily on seed and early stage investments, we will consider
select later stage opportunities that fit within our investment strategy.
Where we act as the lead investor, we must be readily accessible to
the management team and therefore those investments will tend to aggregate
around the US West Coast. This enables us to more actively help management
teams develop their strategies and successfully grow their companies.
We are happy, however, to consider investments in other geographies
when there is an active local lead investor who shares many of our
same investment philosophies. |
