New Enterprise Associates
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
New Enterprise Associates (NEA) is one of the world's leading venture capital firms focused on information technology and healthcare investments. NEA was founded in 1978 and has over $8.5 billion under management, making it one of the oldest and largest venture firms in the world. NEA has been a consistently top performer, and its latest funds (NEA 10 and NEA 11) are top decile performers. The firm was founded by Dick Kramlich, one of the legends of Silicon Valley (having pioneered the field of VC investing with Arthur Rock), and has backed transformational companies such as Apple, TiVo, and Juniper. NEA's management team has invested in over 500 companies, of which approximately 200 have gone public and 195 have been acquired. NEA has offices in Reston, Virginia, Menlo Park, California and Baltimore, Maryland.
In 2005 NEA has announced its backing of Northern Light (not the search engine), a venture capital fund co-founded by Chinese entrepreneurs Feng Deng, Yan Ke, and Min Zhu, who co-founded and was president of NEA portfolio company WebEx Communications. The firm has also since opened an office in India.
