If you're a sapling looking for seed money, U.S. Venture Partners (USVP) can give you a little something to help you grow. The firm invests in early-stage companies in such industries as communications, consumer brands, the Internet, medical devices, semiconductors, and software. Investing in firms located primarily in Silicon Valley, the active investor has raised more than $2.5 billion in eight funds (its eighth fund closed in 2001 at $1 billion). Most investments come indirectly or directly from the company's own trusted sources. Since its founding in 1981, USVP has invested more than $1 billion in more than 270 companies, including Sun Microsystems.
