2013年7月22日31点7月22日2013年36点GeekWire奖项:现在门票!弗雷泽技术公司四年前宣布,将不再进行新的投资,并启动绕组的缓慢的过程操作。但是西雅图风投公司仍有一些坚实的投资组合公司,其中一个正准备进入公开市场,潜在的为该公司创造了一笔意外之财。犹他州盐湖城一家致力于公司房屋、自动化技术制造商正在加大对首次公开发行(ipo),筹资6400万美元,亏损公司的估值超过4亿美元。弗雷泽科技创业投资公司在早期,仍持有12.3%的股份。(提供)后将下降到9.9%,这意味着其所有权价值接近5000万美元的IPO。一家致力于表示,它计划提供四百万股每股15到17美元之间的IPO交易在纳斯达克股票CTRL下。Len乔丹还有其他联系西雅图地区的一家致力于聘请了前RealNetworks和蹦极实验室exec马丁Plaehn 2011年10月担任CEO。(董事会成员Len约旦,以前Madrona弗雷泽技术企业现在的企业集团,也曾是RealNetworks exec)。Plaehn目前持有该公司1.7%的股份。 Interestingly, this is sometimes how it works in venture capital, which can take years for investments to mature. And Frazier Healthcare Ventures still has a stake in some other hot companies in the Seattle area, namely DocuSign ( #3 on the GeekWire 200 list and a potential IPO candidate) and Socrata (which just raised $18 million ). Frazier Technology Ventures was started in 2000 by Alan Frazier and Dan Rosen, an offshoot of the larger Frazier Healthcare Ventures, which continues to be based in Seattle and is raising a new fund . Frazier Technology Ventures raised a $104 million fund in 2004. And this isn’t the first time that a Seattle VC firm that tossed in the towel saw one of its upstarts go the IPO route. Earlier this year, OVP Venture Partners watched NanoString Technologies go public, though its performance in the public markets has been rather lackluster, now trading just below the $10 offering price.
