Rustic Canyon Partners

We believe great venture capitalists provide the service, support, and resources to assist entrepreneurs realize their vision.
We are an early stage firm actively investing out of our third fund, closed in 2008.  As the first or second institutional investor in a company, our investments range from $100,000 to $10 million.
We focus on two themes that have a transformative impact across industries and sectors:
• Internet & Digital Media
• Energy & Efficiency
We are one of the largest VC firms in Los Angeles, and maintain an active office in San Francisco.  Naturally, our investment activity is focused on California, but we consider opportunities in other regions when we meet remarkable entrepreneurs who are building great companies that fit our theses.
Rustic Canyon was launched in 1999 by Founding Partner Tom Unterman, and is led by Managing Partner Nate Redmond.
