A Premier Venture Franchise in IT

In Information Technology, NEA is a leader. We have helped build countless leading technology companies—companies that have generated tens of thousands of jobs and billions of dollars in value.

A Strategy for Success

Our strategy is simple. We identify IT market needs and technology trends that we think will lead to rapid growth and large markets. We examine whether a market is ripe for a new idea by analyzing competitive forces, alternative technologies, customer requirements, and other factors. 

Selecting the Best Opportunities

Our reputation affordss us the opportunity to see many of the best investment opportunities at the earliest stages. And, we quickly evaluate and seize the right opportunities.

We seek to identify and to back only the best team in any given area. If we can’t, we rarely pursue an investment. And, by tapping new markets early, we often find other investments in the same area. Each new investment gives us a new window through which to see the evolving IT landscape.
