I was on This Week in Venture Capital (TWiVC) again this week with Jason Calacanis. Bill Gross is the man responsible for the overwhelming amount of monetization on the web. 2.6mm in Series A : Canaan , Anthem. I found this investment strange since normally VC’s hate to bet on gaming companies.

To see the video of This Week in VC click on this link. What a pleasure that I got to spend an hour talking with both Om Malik (whom I’ve always respected his views) and Paul Jozefak , a venture capital partner at Neuhaus Partners in Germany (and formerly the head of Europe for SAP Ventures). Total raised: $5.0mm.

This was really a fun week at TWiVC because we decided to have an entrepreneur come and talk about raising capital rather than having a VC come on. In particular I tried to do most of the “entrepreneur advice on VC” up front so that if you don’t want to watch our views on the deals you don’t have to. OTHER DEALS: 1.

I’ve been meeting with LPs (those who invest in VC funds) over the past year and discussing trends I see in the market and where I think we need to be as a firm to be near to and meet the needs of our customers. In San Fran you find more recently established VCs like True Ventures, First Round Capital, Freestyle, Kii Capital and others.
