Morgenthaler Closes Ninth Fund at $400 Million
Date:11/12/2008

y-stage investing with its new fund. Since 2001, more than two-thirds of its venture investments have been made in the seed or Series A rounds. Going forward, Bellas said that Morgenthaler will broaden its focus to include more Series B and Series C financings for companies that have achieved significant milestones.

MVP IX is a strategic change for the firm. Previous Morgenthaler funds have made both venture and private equity investments out of the same fund. MVP IX is the first Morgenthaler fund to focus solely on venture capital investments. The firm's Venture Team was allocated approximately $315 million to invest in the previous fund (MP VIII). MVP IX therefore represents roughly a 30% increase in fund size for the Venture Team.

Morgenthaler's Buyout Team -- which announced the sale of its portfolio company, Mark Andy, to American Industrial Partners in mid October -- is based in Cleveland, OH and Boston, MA. The firm has a policy that it will not comment on current and future fundraising plans.

IT Investing -- Rebecca Lynn and Guido Appenzeller Join IT Team

Morgenthaler has added two young entrepreneurs to its Information Technology Team. It has named Rebecca Lynn as principal and Guido Appenzeller as entrepreneur-in-residence (EIR). Both are based in Menlo Park, CA. Lynn was the vice president of marketing at NextCard, the first issuer of online credit cards and one of the top-five largest online marketers of that time. Lynn recently earned a joint JD/MBA degree from the Haas School of Business and Boalt Hall School of Law at the University of California at Berkeley. She also holds a B.S. in chemical engineering from the University of Missouri. Lynn is also an inventor and holds several issued patents. At Morgenthaler, she will focus on investments in mobile communications, Internet services, digital media and financial services.

Appenzeller is a co-founder of Voltage Security, a Morgenthaler portfolio company, where he serv
