    Description:

    With offices in Pal Alto, CA and Boston, Tenaya Capital is a venture capital firm that invests in mid to late stage venture-backed technology companies. Founded in 1995 as Lehman Brothers Venture Partners, the firm became an independent company in 2009. Over the years Tenaya has raised five funds representing over $1 billion of committed capital, investing it in a wide range of high-growth technology companies including software, consumer Internet, IT infrastructure, communications and electronics. Tenaya's investment can be more than $30 million, however the firm typically starts with an initial investment of $5 million to $20 million. The firm's investments range from companies that are in the initial stages of revenue generation to companies seeking pre-IPO mezzanine capital. The majority of Tenaya's investments are in the mid-stage, where companies are generating $1 - 5 million of revenue per quarter. The firm does not make seed or Series A investments.
