Believe they hired a few guys from Goldman who are sitting out there now.
Bump - I know they hired a few SAs
2 SAs. The MD is ex-Goldman, and a lot of the VPs are from BofA TMT in Palo Alto. Mostly enterprise software deals. By next year they're looking to expand to 10-15 people total.
Do you know how many people are in the office now? Just wondering how lean it is
I don't remember exactly, but I think it's slightly fewer than 10. It's a bit top heavy, with mostly VPs/the MD; there are only 2-3 analysts in the office.
Didn't Guggenheim already have an office in SF focused on cleantech and software? What's the difference between the SF and MP offices?
Its like you said, SF and menlo offices cover different industry groups.
Sf covers renewable energy / MP covers tech
Got it - thanks. Any idea how the deal flow in SF is? I see most of the seniors are pretty legit and are ex-Greentech.
Bump - How do they compare to other Tech banks in SF / Menlo Park?
